Ashes: Josh Hazlewood Doubtful To Play In Boxing Day Test
Australian pace bowler Josh Hazlewood is a doubtful starter for the third Ashes Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) starting on December 26, with the Cricket Australia (CA) selection panel wanting to give him some more time to recover from the side strain and return for the fourth Test at the SCG in New Year.
Hazlewood had suffered a strain during the opening Test at The Gabba, which Australia won by nine wickets. He missed the Adelaide Oval Test and did not bowl on Friday, instead watching on as compatriot pace bowlers Jhye Richardson and Michael Neser have long stints at the nets bowling to top-order batters.
