Aussies Set to Rest Stars
Thursday, February 20 2003
Australia are set to rest Adam Gilchrist, Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie in the side match against the Netherlands tonight.
The Australian administrators are worried that Gilchrist will pick up an injury heading into the Super Six stages and beyond and are giving him a rest, allowing Jimmy Maher a game behind the stumps.
Lee and Gillespie meanwhile will be rested in order to give Ian Harvey and Andy Bichel time in the middle.
However, should the whether stay wet, Brad Hogg will not play with either Lee or Gillespie backing up from the Indian match on the weekend.
The squad currently has just 14 players due to Shane Warne returning home last week.
