Champions Trophy: Cummins, Hazlewood Ruled Out Of Australia’s Squad
Indian Premier League: Australia have officially announced that skipper Pat Cummins and fellow fast bowler Josh Hazlewood have been ruled out of the squad for the upcoming Champions Trophy and preceding two ODIs against Sri Lanka.
Cummins has not recovered from the left ankle soreness which he developed at the end of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against India, where he led Australia to a 3-1 win. On the other hand, Hazlewood has developed a hip problem after recovering from his previous injuries - side strain and calf issue.
"Unfortunately Pat, Josh and Mitch are managing some ongoing injuries and haven’t come up in time for the Champion’s Trophy. While disappointing, it does present a great opportunity for other players to perform for Australia in a world event," national selection panel chair George Bailey said in a statement.
