McDermott Replaces Short In Australia’s Squad For Final ODI Against WI
Big Bash League: Right-handed batter Ben McDermott has been called into Australia’s squad for the final ODI match against the West Indies after Matthew Short was ruled out of due to a low-grade hamstring injury.
Short suffered the hamstring injury during Australia’s series-clinching win over the West Indies at the SCG on Sunday. He made 41 off 55 balls with the bat after coming in to bat at number six. But he didn’t come out to field after due to the injury suffered while batting.
McDermott made 146 not out for Queensland in an ongoing Sheffield Shield match against Tasmania on Saturday. He’s now pulled out of the match to link up with the Australia ODI squad in Canberra on Monday, with the game to be played at the Manuka Oval on Tuesday.
