England and Lancashire batter Phil Salt has been granted permission to withdraw from the England Men’s IT20 squad for the upcoming three-match Vitality Series against the West Indies.
Salt, who is taking time away on paternity leave following the birth of his child earlier this week, will now spend time at home.
He has been replaced in the squad by Surrey batter Jamie Smith.
The series gets underway at the Banks Homes Riverside in Durham on Friday evening, with further matches to be held in Bristol and Southampton
