Fast bowler Joe Mennie is almost certain to make his Test debut in Hobart after
Peter Siddle was ruled out due to a back injury.
Eden Hazard Chelsea Jersey .Australias
selectors have also called on Jackson Bird as cover for the bowling unit but he
is not officially part of the squad, which means Mennie is set to join Josh
Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc in the pace attack for the second Test against
South Africa, starting on Saturday. Mennie was named 12th man for the WACA Test
and was then released to play a Sheffield Shield match for South
Australia.Siddle was preferred in Perth, where he was making his return to
international cricket following a lay-off due to a stress fracture of the back,
diagnosed following Australias Test tour of New Zealand earlier this year.
Australias medical staff are hopeful that Siddle will recover quickly, but have
taken a cautious approach due to his recent history.Peter Siddle had some lower
back soreness at the conclusion of the first Test match in Perth, Australias
team physio David Beakley said. Whilst we expect bowlers to be sore after Test
matches, this was slightly worse than we expected and given that he was
returning from a significant back injury, we organised some scans today.The
scans demonstrated some low grade bone oedema around his old stress fracture
that is likely to be a flare-up of his previous lower back injury. We are
hopeful that this will resolve relatively quickly, but have withdrawn him from
the squad for the second Test match in Hobart. We will monitor his recovery and
have a better idea of when he will return to play in the next week or so.Siddles
injury is yet another consequence to be drawn from Australias horrid batting
collapse on day two of the WACA Test, sending Australias bowlers - Siddle and
Starc with limited preparations - back into the field only 24 hours after they
had bowled the Proteas out on day one. The coach Darren Lehmann said
back-to-back Tests would stretch his men physically after they were made to work
hard by JP Duminy and Dean Elgar in particular.They have bowled four days in a
row, Lehmann said. They are pretty sore as I would imagine the South African
boys would be, the two bowlers that bowled the whole game for them. All bowlers
are going to be pretty sore and tight. Well just have to see how they pull up
and make a call from there. They will have the same issues.Its a short
turn-around. Thats the nature of cricket in Australia, back-to-back Test matches
early on. The good thing, I thought we batted a lot better in the second
innings. The disappointing thing is we were off to flyer, obviously 0 for 158,
and we lost 10 for 86. Thats the thing that hurts you in a game, as you know. If
we had the discipline and that in the first innings that we showed probably
yesterday and today, we would have made a better score and a better fist of it
in the first innings and had a lead.Thats the challenge, isnt it? First innings,
they made us pay in the second, Duminy and Elgar batted really well. I thought
our bowlers worked hard the whole game and then coming in, if we had batters in
in the last session today, well, you never know, do you? We just lost batters at
the wrong time.Asked about Australias limited preparation, one Sheffield Shield
match, and moving the first Test of summer from Brisbane to Perth, Lehmann said
his hands were tied: Cant do anything about it. Love to, but we cant.The
selectors had already added Callum Ferguson and Joe Burns to the Test squad to
replace the injured Shaun Marsh (broken finger) and also provide cover for Adam
Voges (hamstring). Lehmann confirmed both batsmen would be under consideration
even if Voges is passed fit, placing further pressure on the underperforming
Mitchell Marsh.We have known about the broken finger for about three days, which
has been very good from our boys not to get out to you guys, Lehmann said. We
have known the squad is going to be changed in the last three days. I would say
every spot is under pressure. Thats the nature of the beast if you dont have
success. I thought he batted quite well and was a bit unlucky with the decision,
but that is part of the game as well.Lehmann acknowledged that the national team
were under a rare level of pressure, as four consecutive Test match losses have
historically led to a change of the Australian captain or coach. [Well] Try to
clear their minds, he said of the players. But everyone has pressure. Everyone
has pressure when not playing well. But also as a player you always have
pressure to perform at international level.If you have a few bad performances,
there is always someone waiting in the wings. And thats been the case for 100
years, thats not going to change I wouldnt think. We try and pick and stick
where we possibly can and encourage the guys and we get in trouble when we dont
pick and stick, we get in trouble when do pick and stick with you guys. So then
when we add someone, it all changes.So, there is pressure on players day in, day
out for your country and thats part and parcel of whether you are playing for
South Africa or Australia.
John Terry Jersey . Nine days before the
opening ceremony, organizing committee chief Dmitry Chernyshenko said Wednesday
that Sochi is "fully ready" and will deliver safe, friendly and well-run games
that defy the grim reports that have overshadowed preparations.
Asmir Begovic Jersey . John Lucas, signed as
a mentor for rookie Trey Burke, showed he can score if required, scoring 12
points of his 16 points in the second quarter as Utah built an 18-point lead.

. Andrew Luck lost his favourite target and the Indianapolis locker room lost
one of its most revered leaders when Reggie Wayne was diagnosed Monday with a
torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee that will cost him the rest of
the season. Scotland skipper Greig Laidlaw was left to lament his sides lack of
luck after suffering another painful late set-back against Australia.The Scots
were hoping to reap some revenge after their controversial exit from last years
World Cup at the hands of Michael Cheikas men. But once again Bernard Foley
nailed a late kick to break Scottish hearts as his side claimed a 23-22 win.The
hosts put out an inexperienced line-up yet their performance contained an
encouraging mixture of maturity and verve. Prop Allan Dell and centre Huw Jones
were making their first international appearances at Murrayfield, while
tighthead Zander Fagerson and flanker Hamish Watson registered their first
starts for their country.But Laidlaw admits they did not have the stroke of
fortune they required to claim a third win over the Wallabies in seven years.As
players we understand where we are, said the captain, who added seven points
with his boot.We believe we are so much better and so much more organised. We
know exactly what each other is doing and we feel that is starting to come
though in our performances.Were pretty much in every single game we play now.
Its just about getting that little bit of luck. Everybody needs that bit of
luck. One of my kicks clipped the inside of the post. It was the thickness of a
lick of paint away from going through. If it had we were probably home and
hosed.But unfortunately we just coughed up a try at the end. We felt we were
harshly penalised at the eend when John Barclay was on the ball near the end.
Ramires Chelsea Jersey. e feel we are so
close but were massively frustrated.The look of disgust on Laidlaws face after
referee Craig Joubert wrongly handed Australia a decisive penalty at Twickenham
was one of the enduring images of last years World Cup. But the Scots scrum-half
preferred not to look back after another harsh loss.That quarter-final is gone.
It was a while ago. The pleasing thing for us is that we played so much better
than we did in Japan during the summer.Departing head coach Vern Cotter was
denied a winning start to his farewell tour. He was frustrated with referee John
Laceys display but with seven games left before his Scotland reign ends next
summer, the Kiwi was remaining positive.We always come back to the old saying of
fine margins. I wouldnt necessarily say the best team won.Im incredibly proud of
the players and the way they played that game. There are things we can control
and things we cant, so we focus on the things we can. The players played with
immense courage and threw themselves at it. I think we didnt get the rub of the
green at times.There were eight penalties against us in the second half but only
two for us. But as I say that is something we cant focus on. The most important
thing for us is to get back to improving performances. Thats what we will do.?
