Waugh, Haddin Fitness Struggle
Tuesday, February 18 2003
Key New South Welshmen Steve Waugh and Brad Haddin are facing fitness tests in order to take part in the ING Cup final against Western Australia in Hobart.
Test captain Waugh and wicketkeeper Haddin both have hamstring injuries. Of the two, Waugh’s injury is seen as the more serious.
Waugh has been in brilliant form of late, highlighted by his man-of-the-match performance to get NSW into the final on Sunday.
Matthew Phelps and Nathan Pilon are on stand-by for the injured pair.
The squad named is unchanged from the side that defeated South Australia at Homebush on Sunday.
