| Australia name unchanged squad for Perth Test match |
| Thursday, January 10, 2008 |
9 January 2008
Australia have named an unchanged squad for the third Test against India despite doubts over Matthew Hayden because of a hamstring injury. Hayden scored a century in Sydney despite hamstring problems. His fitness will be monitored before the Test begins in Perth on 16 January.
Brad Hogg was also named despite facing a ban for an alleged offensive remark, but he could miss out on the final XI if Australia go with four quicks.
Australia lead the series 2-0 but the second Test was marred with a charge of racism and India threatening to quit.
Meanwhile, India started a three-day tour match against an Australian Capital Territory XI in Canberra on Thursday.
The tourists declared on 325-9, with opener Wasim Jaffer hitting 92, before ACT XI reached 10-0 in reply at the close. Harbhajan was also playing but was out for a duck.
Chris Rogers was playing for ACT XI and the Western Australia opener could be called up to replace Hayden should he be ruled out, although New South Wales' Simon Katich is another option. |
