Could Bracken return for New Zealand tour?

Question

If Nathan Bracken is fit for Australia’s forthcoming tour of New Zealand, what are his chances of being included in the squad?

Answer 1

Bracken had anchored the ODI bowling attack for Australia for a while before he was forced out of action before last year’s Champions Trophy. The good news for Australia is that they’ve put together a pretty useful bowling attack without the left-armer or Brett Lee during their home summer. The bad news for Bracken is it means breaking back into the side could be tough, although Peter Siddle’s absence with a back injury might create an opening.
