Australia Selector Backs Morris, Richardson For Summer Season Despite Injury Concerns

By IANS News July 16, 2024 • 12:50 PM View: 453
Major League Cricket: Australia selector George Bailey has long-term plans for pacers Lance Morris and Jhye Richardson, after missing out on the white-ball tour of the UK. The duo were given Cricket Australia central contracts earlier this year.

Morris missed the whole winter season due to a stress fracture in his back, and he is currently undergoing further rehabilitation for the same. It is a recurrence of what transpired following his exclusion from the Ashes trip in the 2022–2023 season.

The pacer had earlier sustained a side strain in his second ODI match, which curtailed his summer. He had been due to play for Seattle Orcas in ongoing Major League Cricket before scans revealed a hot spot in his back and as a result, he was not selected for the Scotland and England trip.
