Labuschagne Replaces Green In Australia’s Squad For India ODIs
India ODIs: Australia all-rounder Cameron Green has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI series against India due to side soreness, with Marnus Labuschagne named as his replacement. The injury has been assessed as low grade and Cricket Australia (CA) has opted for a precautionary approach given Green’s significance to their Ashes plans.
Green will miss the three ODIs scheduled for October 19, 23 and 25, but is expected to return for Western Australia’s next Sheffield Shield fixture starting October 28. The all-rounder made his bowling comeback in last week’s Shield match - his first since undergoing back surgery last year - where he picked up a wicket in a four-over spell. CA confirmed that his current setback is unrelated to the operation he had last October.
"Green will complete a short period of rehabilitation and is tracking to return to play in round three of the Sheffield Shield to continue his preparation for the Ashes," CA said in a statement this morning.
