The ICC has approved Steven Finn as a replacement player for Chris Woakes in the England squad for the ongoing Champions Trophy.
Woakes sustained a left side strain during England's eight-wicket victory over Bangladesh in the tournament opener on Thursday.
Finn, 28, has represented England in 68 One-Day Internationals and taken 102 wickets.
The replacement of a player requires the approval of the Event Technical Committee before the replacement player can be officially added to the squad.
The Event Technical Committee of the ICC Champions Trophy consists of Geoff Allardice (ICC, chairman), Campbell Jamieson (ICC representative), Steve Elworthy (Tournament Director), Alan Fordham (host representative), Sourav Ganguly and Michael Slater (both independent nominees).
Finn was once considered England’s premier bowler in ODI cricket and was a regular wicket-taker. However he started struggling since his action was remodelled due to his habit of hitting the stumps at the non-striker’s end accidently.
