JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Fast bowler Gerald Coetzee has been ruled out of next month’s two-test series in the West Indies due to a left side strain suffered playing Twenty20 cricket in the United States, Cricket South Africa said on Thursday.

He sustained the injury earlier this month and returned to South Africa for medical tests, which have ruled him out of the trip to the Caribbean.
