West Indies all-rounder Yannic Cariah has suffered a nasal fracture after being struck in the face during the team's training session ahead of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Qualifier.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cariah will remain in Zimbabwe with the team and be reassessed in the coming days.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Yannic Cariah was struck in the face today in training and suffered a nasal fracture. He will remain with the West Indies team in Zimbabwe and be reassessed in a few days. WI wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to welcoming him back soon," said Cricket West Indies in a tweet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cariah had shown signs of strong form in the CWC Qualifier warm-up matches, taking 4\/46 against Scotland and then backing that up with another four-wicket haul against the UAE.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The 30-year-old has played eight ODIs since making a West Indies debut against New Zealand in August last year and has more than a decade of experience playing at the top level in the Caribbean.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The leg-spinner also impressed in his only two T20Is when troubling an Australia outfit that were fine-tuning for an ICC Men's T20 World Cup on home soil.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cariah is also able to contribute valuable runs from the lower order and looms as a costly loss for the West Indies as they aim to secure one of the two remaining spots at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in India later this year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
