New Zealand's Anderson out of England tour

LONDON - New Zealand all-rounder Corey Anderson has been ruled out of the remainder of the tour of England with a back injury, team management announced Friday. The 24-year-old suffered a stress-related injury to his back during the first Test at Lord's and will now return home. Anderson missed New Zealand's series-levelling win in the second Test at Headingley and didn't feature in England's 210-run win in the first ODI. Anderson was sent for an MRI scan which revealed a new bone stress-related injury to his spine and now faces further tests.
