England's Stuart Broad suffers a calf injury during the visitors' defeat to Sri Lanka, which throws doubt into the bowler's chances of featuring next week.

England bowler Stuart Broad may be forced to sit out of England's second Test match of the series against Sri Lanka with a calf strain.

The 25-year-old appeared to struggle while at the crease during the closing stages of the visitors' defeat in Galle today.

"He's got a tight calf," said England captain Andrew Strauss. "We don't know anything more at this stage about the extent of the injury but obviously we'll find out in the next few days."

England will try to draw level with Sri Lanka in the series when they begin their second Test next Tuesday.
