Bond's Career in Doubt

Wednesday, November 26 2003

Shane Bond's career could be going down the same road as Geoff Allot's after news that his recovery process hasn't gone as planned and that he could be out for the whole New Zealand summer and possibly even be forced into an early retirement.

Bond has continued to experience lower back pain throughout his recovery and is to have an MRI Scan to determine the extent of the problems. No date has been set as yet for the scan.

Shane Bond has taken the world scene by storm since he arrived on the international scene in Australia having taken 43 wickets from 10 tests at an average of 24.3 and 51 wickets from 27 ODIs at only 19.

Cricket fans will be hoping he comes through these problems and doesn't go down the same path as so many other New Zealand fast bowlers who have had to retire just as they were reaching their peak.
