Didn't think they would want to risk him.

The only way he could do that, I'd assume would be if he can go into the game with a runner.

Now that I think of it you aren't allowed to go into a game with a runner, you have to have suffered the injury during the game to be allowed a runner. My bad.

He's no chance for the Boxing Day test. Keep in mind he batted with a runner and his newest hamstring injury is supposed to be worse than the one he got last time which kept him out for 3 weeks.

I think our best chance of seeing him again is towards the end of the Commonwealth Bank Series given that QLD doctors have said that he will be out until mid January and he will need probably 2 or 3 weeks of games for QLD to prove his fitness for the Australian selectors.

oh ok cool, wasn't aware he batted with a runner, vut fair enough though, i guess we will probably see him until the end of the CB series..

Well if he goes into a match while still injured or still recovering and reinjuries it while batting or fielding he can't have a runner as you are only allowed one if it was injured in a match.

So I don't think it is worth the risk for mine.
