Australie The injury that women’s bowler Sophie Molineux suffered during practice could keep her out of play for over eight weeks. After three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) against New Zealand from September 19 to 24, Australia will travel to Bangladesh for the T20 World Cup, which is set to start on October 3.
Due to time constraints, the left-arm pacer’s ability to play in the forthcoming New Zealand series and T20 World Cup depends on how quickly she heals from her fractured rib. The fact that Molineux plays for Manchester Originals at the Hundred will also be missed due to her ailment. Star all-arounder Grace Harris has also suffered a calf strain, which will also prevent her from competing in the Hundred for London Spirit, dealing further damage to the Australian team.
“During last week’s batting session, Sophie Molineux was hit by a ball in the chest, resulting in an acute rib fracture.
In her preparation for The Hundred and the forthcoming season, Harris had a worsening of a calf problem. She is currently undergoing a phased rehabilitation and return-to-play programme, according to Cricket Australia, which was cited by.
In the Originals lineup before the Hundred season, Kim Garth takes Molineux’s position.
Conversely, Kim Garth has been brought in by the Originals to take over for the injured Molineux, while Megan Schutt will take over for Harris in the Spirit camp. In addition to the Hundred, the Australia A team has also had to make adjustments due to the injuries sustained by both players. Australia A is scheduled to play India A in a multi-format series. Both Maitlan Brown and Kate Peterson have been called up to the squad; Brown has played in ODIs as opposed to previously only playing in T20Is.
