I am not finished yet: Lee

Yahoonews, PTI, 02 November 2009

Sydney: Laid low by yet another injury but determined to come back, Australian pace spearhead Brett Lee today insisted that despite the latest setback in India, his Test career is not finished.

The 32-year-old speedster was forced out of the ongoing one-day series against India due to an elbow injury, barely a couple of months after recovering from a rib injury that had prevented him from participating in the Ashes.

Lee played just the opening match of the series against India before getting injured. But the six-footer said his Test career is not over and he would aim to recover for the home Test series against West Indies starting November 26.

"I certainly have not ruled out playing Test match cricket and that is definitely the most important thing that I want to achieve - to get back in and play Test match cricket," Lee told reporters after returning from India.

The injury-ravaged bowler, who spent the initial part of the year recuperating from the fourth ankle surgery of his career, said he would continue to bowl fast and also work towards improving his batting.

    A welcome development

    We have seen the referral system tried out at Wimbledon and it worked really well. There is no reason to believe that it will not work in cricket too.

    Strauss must re-exert his authority

    The tourists missed Strauss's conviction in marshalling the side in the field and his batting is always valuable because he is such a fluid player when he is in form.
