Australia Delay Selection Call To Check Healy's Fitness For Ashes Test
Melbourne Cricket Ground: Australia are sweating on captain Alyssa Healy's availability for the historic day-night Women's Ashes Test against England starting at the Melbourne Cricket Ground here on Thursday. Healy completed a full training session two days out despite battling a stress injury in her foot that saw her miss the entire T20I series while wearing a moon boot.
Healy participated fully in Australia's main training session at the MCG, showing no signs of pain or restriction in her right foot.
She began with a running session alongside six teammates, including Ashleigh Gardner, who is recovering from a calf injury. Both players moved well, completing multiple high-intensity laps of the MCG. Healy followed this with short sprints and participated in the fielding drills, working in the outfield without any issues. Healy then had an extensive batting session in the nets, facing pace, spin, and throwdowns, handling all without discomfort.
