West Indies captain Brian Lara will miss the first One-Day International against England on Sunday after aggravating a finger injury in his record-breaking innings of 400 in the fourth Test.

Lara was off the pitch for more than an hour on the final day receiving further treatment to a dislocated finger and doctors have advised him to rest the injury for 10 days.

Lara will definitely miss the first one-dayer in Guyana and is likely to be out of contention for the second and third matches of the seven-game series, played back-to-back in Trinidad on April 24 and 25.

In his absence, Ramnaresh Sarwan is set to captain the side in Guyana, although Lara will travel with the squad.
