Brett Lee will fly back to Australia soon. He wont be playing in the remaining matches of seven match series. Lee is suffering from an elbow injury.

Lee didn’t play in the Nagpur match and wasn’t able to bowl his quota of 10 overs in first match at Vadodra.

This is a big blow for Australia. Mitchell Jhonson and James Hopes are struggling with their fitness too. Jhonson did play in 2nd ODI, despite his injury whereas James Hopes missed the Nagpur ODI and is expected to sit of the 3rd ODI too.

“Brett’s elbow injury has not responded as well to treatment as we would have liked and therefore a decision has been made to send him home to consult with an elbow specialist,” team physiotherapist Kevin Sims said.

“With an accurate diagnosis we can determine how best to manage the injury and give Brett the best chance of being available for selection at the beginning of the Australian summer,” he added.

“Cricket Australia’s National Selection Panel are working through the process of naming a replacement player and this will be advised in due course,” the statement read.
