Australia's Lance Morris Suffers Side Strain, Doubtful For NZ Test
Lance Morris: Lance Morris' hopes of touring New Zealand with Australia's Test squad later this month have been dealt a cruel blow as the right-arm fast bowler suffered a side strain while bowling in the third ODI against West Indies here on Tuesday.
Morris claimed a figure of 2 for 13 with a maiden and helped Australia roll the West Indies for a paltry 86, their second-lowest total in ODIs against Australia. But, the speedster left the field three balls into his fifth over at Manuka Oval after clutching at his left side.
Team officials confirmed the injury not long after and the fast bowler was returned to the dugout after being assessed and he was seen icing the injured area. Morris is set to be sent for scans to determine the extent of the injury, according to cricket.com.au.
