Australia Confident Of Smith's Return For 2nd Test After He Rejoins Squad
World Test Championship: Steven Smith is on course to be available for Australia’s second Test against the West Indies in Grenada, following the compound dislocation he sustained during the World Test Championship final against South Africa at Lord’s.
Smith spent the past week in New York, where he resumed batting using a tennis ball and an "incredi-ball" (a soft cricket training ball), before rejoining the squad in Barbados on Saturday evening after their three-day win in the opening Test.
He still has to complete a few medical protocols, with Tuesday’s training session in Grenada set to be a decisive one. However, head coach Andrew McDonald is confident Smith will be fit to return at No. 4, a move that will likely see Josh Inglis make way in the playing XI.
