Aus vs Ind: Pucovski Cleared By Medical Experts Ahead Of Third Test

By IANS News January 05, 2021 • 10:50 AM View: 2248

Uncapped Australia batsman Will Pucovski has been cleared by an independent neurologist as well as by all medical experts ahead of the third Test against India scheduled to begin from Thursday at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

"Will has been cleared by an independent neurologist yesterday afternoon. He has been cleared by all the medicos now. He has obviously managed all the concussion protocols which we all know are incredibly strict these days -- they have all been passed. He has been cleared and that would be very heartening for him, for his family and for everyone involved in it. There is no reason why Will can't be selected. We are just working now on the balance of our team," informed head coach Justin Langer while speaking to the media on Tuesday morning.
