Lehmann out

[Russian]

Darren Lehmann has been ruled out of the second 3 Test against Zimbabwe in Sydney after diagnostic scans revealed acute inflammation of his left Achilles tendon.

Dr Martin Sullivan, a leading foot and ankle specialist, and Errol Alcott, Australia's physiotherapist, have advised him rest until a review in mid-November, a Cricket Australia press release said.

Although disappointed at missing the Test, Lehmann said that he was "realistic enough to know that I could suffer further damage if I do play."

"My main focus right now is to try and get things right for good," Lehmann added. "I did a lot of running during our break prior to the Perth Test and according to Dr Sullivan, that's where I aggravated the Achilles."

Australia have yet to name their line-up for the Sydney Test.

Been told to rest for a month. Damn, Redbacks miss out again

Oh my god, that is helarious. My friend would be loving this.

Lehman how he could be selected ahead of Clarke ( the future of the test team) or even Love is seriously behond me. It's not like we need his bowling and his batting is good at state level, as failed to do anything for Australia, seriously now is Australia's chance to play some youngsters that will be there in years to come. I just hope they don't make the same mistake us RSA and England and thats throw in all their youngsters at once and get thrashed for a couple of years before these players get used to the big league.

You clown

Clarke has been just above average at beat at Pura Cup Level

Lehmann's level of play at STate level is unsurpassed.

He has three test centuries in his last four tests I think.

Promoting someone just because they are young is dumb.

Lehmann says he's a 50/50 chance of playing in Brisbane, not allowed to do anything for 3-4 weeks.
