Ireland winger James Lowe will miss the remainder of the Six Nations Championship after sustaining a groin injury during last weekend's win over England.

The 33-year-old limped off and was replaced by Leinster teammate Tommy O'Brien in the 18th minute of the 42-21 victory at Twickenham.

Ireland host Wales in round four of the championship on Friday, March 6th, before Scotland visit Dublin eight days later on the final weekend.

New Zealand-born Lowe has scored 17 tries in 45 appearances for Ireland and won two British and Irish Lions Test caps during last year's tour of Australia.

He played every minute of Ireland's triumphant Six Nations campaigns in 2023 and 2024.

Lowe was left out of head coach Andy Farrell's matchday squad for the 36-14 round-one defeat by France on February 5th. He impressed in the subsequent 20-13 win over Italy.

Ireland sit third in the championship table, behind leaders France and second-placed Scotland, following the record victory away to England.
