England batsman Ollie Pope is facing around four months on the sidelines as he requires surgery after dislocating his left shoulder in the final Test against Pakistan.
Pope - who suffered an identical injury while playing for Surrey last summer, leading him to miss three months of the county season - was visibly discomforted when he landed awkwardly after diving to prevent a boundary on Monday.
He left the field immediately and underwent an MRI scan in London on Wednesday before being reviewed by a consultant on Thursday, and it has been decided he will undergo an operation in the next couple of weeks.
England said in a statement: "England batsman Ollie Pope has been ruled out for up to four months after dislocating his left shoulder during the #raisethebat third Test against Pakistan at the Ageas Bowl.
"It is hoped that Pope will return in time for England's winter tours of Sri Lanka and India starting in the early part of 2021."
Tom Banton opened for England in the first Twenty20 international against Pakistan at Emirates Old Trafford on Friday evening.
Banton brought up his maiden T20 international half-century off 33 balls and made 71 as England reached 131 for six from 16.1 overs before the match was abandoned because of rain.

UAE currency: the story behind the money in your pockets
How it works
Each player begins with one of the great empires of history, from Julius Caesar's Rome to Ramses of Egypt, spread over Europe and the Middle East.
Round by round, the player expands their empire. The more land they have, the more money they can take from their coffers for each go.
As unruled land and soldiers are acquired, players must feed them. When a player comes up against land held by another army, they can choose to battle for supremacy.
A dice-based battle system is used and players can get the edge on their enemy with by deploying a renowned hero on the battlefield.
Players that lose battles and land will find their coffers dwindle and troops go hungry. The end goal? Global domination of course.
