Australian bowler Brett Lee, 32, who was suffering from side strain was ruled out of the third test after the bowler failed to pass the fitness test.
Vice captain Micheal Clarke confirmed today, that Lee will not recover in time for the third test.
Clarke said:
I don’t think that Brett is going to be right for Thursday. He only bowled off three or four steps today in the net.
He is doing plenty of fitness work and is working very hard to get himself right.
I am not sure exactly how far away he is but I think he is out of contention for Thursday.
Clarke also expressed his surprise about the Edgbaston wicket being dry and he feels spinners would play a major part in the third test.
