Hero Honda Cup 2009: 3rd ODI: India vs Australia

October 31, 2009 By: admin1 Category: Cricket News No Comments →

The Australian fast bowle Brett Lee has been ruled out of the remaining matches on the ongoing ODI series against India. Lee will fly back home because of an elbow injury.
He is also likely to miss the home test series against West Indies.
Lee was unable to complete his quota of overs on the first ODI in Vadodara and this elbow problem kept him out of the second ODI in Nagpur. The injury is the latest setback for Lee who also missed the Ashes in England due to fitness problems.
James Hopes willnot be playing the third ODi as he is suffering from hamstring strain. Now with Lee joining him, it is likely to be a major setback for the Aussies.
Also Tim Paine, the Australian wicket keeper who broke his finger during the second ODI will be replaced by Graham Manou, who is expected to reach Delhi for the third ODI.
