Ben Stokes has been ruled out of the remainder of the Rajasthan Royals' campaign in IPL 2021 with a broken finger in his left hand.

The Royals said in a statement on Tuesday that after Stokes picked up the injury, "subsequent investigations revealed that he sustained a broken finger, which will unfortunately rule him out of the remainder of the Indian Premier League 2021 season".
