West Indies will be without fast bowler Shamar Joseph for Monday's third and last One-Day International against Sri Lanka at Sabina Park in Kingston.
Cricket West Indies said in a release that the 26-year-old Guyanese quick is unavailable because of personal reasons. The board added that Joseph has travelled home, but he is expected to link back with the team before the three-match T20 International series begins on Thursday, also at Sabina Park.
Joseph did not take a wicket in the first ODI, giving up 38 runs from eight overs.
Sri Lanka lead the three-match contest 1-0 after West Indies lost the opening game by 41 runs. Saturday's second ODI was called off because steady rain prevented play from getting under way. Monday's day-night match is scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m.
