England's Chris Woakes has withdrawn from this season's Indian Premier League.
Woakes was picked up by Delhi Capitals for £160,000 at the tournament draft in December but has opted to pull out in a bid to keep himself fresh for the international summer.
Woakes has informed the franchise of his decision and they have begun to search for an overseas replacement.
The 31-year-old seam-bowling all-rounder played a key role in England's historic World Cup success last year and also went on to play four of the five Ashes Tests.
He has since toured New Zealand and South Africa over the winter and is currently preparing with the squad ahead of two Tests in Sri Lanka.
