Australia's Michael Neser Injured, Misses Bangladesh Tests, Targets South Africa ReturnPreviousNext

Australia fast bowler Michael Neser has suffered a right calf strain during training, ruling him out of the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh. Neser, who was a standby player for the series, is expected to spend about a month in rehabilitation and aims to return for Australia's three-match Test tour of South Africa in October. Despite missing selection for Bangladesh, Neser impressed during the Ashes with 15 wickets and remains part of Australia's fast-bowling plans.
