Watson to miss Sri Lanka game
ST GEORGE’S, April 15: Injured Australia all-rounder Shane Watson will not play in Monday's World Cup Super Eights match against Sri Lanka but is still on course for the final second-round match against New Zealand on Friday.
Watson has not played since he left the field with a calf strain in the world champions' Super Eights match against Bangladesh on March 31.
“He won't play tomorrow,” captain Ricky Ponting told a news conference on Sunday. “He ran yesterday at about 70 percent and he has had a really good net today.
“He's moving very freely in the nets. I think he's on track for things as planned which is hopefully to come back against New Zealand.”—Reuters
