Australia name provisional squad for 2012 World T20 championship – Cricket News Update
Cricket Australia on Wednesday named its preliminary 30-man squad for September’s World T20 Championship in Sri Lanka. Whilst Dirk Nannes has been called up for the esteemed tournament, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/James-Pattinson-c1653 both failed to make the cut.
Nannes' inclusion and Lyon's exclusion are both quite surprising, not only for the followers, but the players as well. The former has not played for the Aussies since 2010, while the latter had national selector John Inverarity's backing, who in February,
shared his plan to take http://www.senore.com/Cricket/XJ-Doherty-c2804, Brad Hogg, and Lyon to the World T20, played in spin-friendly conditions. Besides, form of the Victorian pacer has also been not so encouraging of late, as he has claimed only four wickets in nine Flt20 matches played
for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Surrey-c851 this season.
The two uncapped players in the preliminary squad are off-spinner http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rob-Quiney-c2340.
National selector http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Robert-John-Inverarity-c85980 said that they have picked a well balanced squad for the T20 extravaganza.
"The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World Twenty20 will be a fiercely contested tournament," Inverarity said. "A great deal of flamboyant cricketing talent will be on display and some games will be turned on their heads by 10 minutes of brilliance. The squad announced today is full
of talent, enterprise and all-round strength. Within the 30 players named is depth and cover for all departments within the team."
The latest edition of the World T20 Championship gets underway at Hambantota, on September 18, with hosts http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Zimbabwe-c3045 in the curtain raiser.
As per International Cricket Council’s provisions, the preliminary squads of all the participating countries are expected to be submitted with the organising committee sixty days prior to the tournament, while the final squads must be submitted with the
apex body 30 days before the first ball of the event is bowled.
