Michael Neser Injured, Misses Bangladesh Tests, Targets South Africa Tour Return

Michael Neser Injured, Misses Bangladesh Tests, Targets South Africa Tour ReturnPreviousNext

Australian pacer Michael Neser has sustained a right calf strain during training, sidelining him for about a month and ruling him out of the upcoming Bangladesh Test series. Despite missing selection due to the return of Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood, Neser remained on standby but now focuses on rehabilitation. He aims to recover in time for Australia's South Africa tour in October, where he is expected to compete for a fast-bowling spot following his strong performance in the recent Ashes series.
