Roach has taken 18 wickets in six matches for Surrey this season

West Indies bowler Kemar Roach has been ruled out of next month's Test tour of England with a knee injury.

Seamer Roach, 35, is one of West Indies' leading pace bowlers and has taken 270 wickets in 81 Tests.

He sustained the injury playing in the County Championship this season for Surrey.

Uncapped seamer Jeremiah Louis has been called up as his replacement for the three-Test series, which begins at Lord's on 10 July.

Louis will compete with former captain Jason Holder, fast bowlers Alzarri and Shamar Joseph, plus Jayden Seales for inclusion in an exciting pace attack.

The first Test will also be veteran bowler James Anderson's last for England.

West Indies squad: Kraigg Brathwaite (captain), Alick Athanaze, Joshua Da Silva, Jason Holder, Kavem Hodge, Tevin Imlach, Alzarri Joseph, Shamar Joseph, Mikyle Louis, Zachary McCaskie, Kirk McKenzie, Gudakesh Motie, Jeremiah Louis, Jayden Seales, Kevin Sinclair.
