Reece Topley is heading home after breaking his finger (Mike Egerton\/PA)<\/p>\n

He also represents a link to the fast fading glory days on 2019 but whether it is a tangent they would be willing to take, having thrown their faith behind Dawid Malan at the top of the order, is far from certain.<\/p>\n

The versatile Ben Duckett is also on the list of possibles, while spin bowling all-rounders Rehan Ahmed and Will Jacks would represent an obvious investment in the future of a side in need of renewal.<\/p>\n

Asked if England would be looking for a pace bowler in Topley\u2019s absence, Mott said: \u201cThat\u2019s a good question. We\u2019ll have to sit down and have a look at that.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll have to look at the upcoming games (and see) if there is an X factor player we can look at.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why we were very keen not to name the replacements and reserves. It leaves an open mind for what we\u2019re going to go with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rob Key, the managing director of England men\u2019s cricket, is currently with the squad and travelled with them from Mumbai to Bengaluru on Sunday. He will also have a big say in the final decision, joining Mott and captain Jos Buttler.<\/p>\n

Announcing Topley\u2019s exit from the campaign, the England and Wales Cricket Board said: \u201cScans in Mumbai on Saturday, after the match at the Wankhede Stadium, revealed the full extent of the injury. Topley will return to the UK in the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe will work closely with the England and Surrey medical teams in respect of his rehabilitation. A replacement will be announced in due course.\u201d<\/p>\n
