Kane Richardson ruled out of Pakistan tour
Kane Richardson will miss the white-ball leg of the Pakistan tour after sustaining a hamstring injury during a practice session in Melbourne. The ACB named Ben Dwarshuis as a replacement for the solitary T20I and the three-match ODI series.
'One thing that will help is the guys have played a lot of T20 cricket,' said Australian captain Aaron Finch. 'They're quite inexperienced for Australia but I think playing T20 cricket will help them in that regard. There's a lot of skill in the group and guys that have been around one-day cricket for a long time domestically as well.'
