PM’s XI Squad update: Michael Neser has been withdrawn from the Prime Minister’s XI squad to face Pakistan after some soreness during Queensland’s recent Sheffield Shield fixture against Western Australia.
South Australia’s Jordan Buckingham will replace Neser in the squad.
NSP men’s Chair of Selectors, George Bailey said:
“We’re taking a cautious approach with Michael, the elevated risk of potentially another large bowling load in the four-day PM XI’s fixture was deemed too high.
“We know Michael is a quality player and we have seen him perform in the Test team and we want to ensure that should the opportunity arise to play more Test cricket this summer that we are giving him the best chance to be ready to perform.
“Over the coming days we will work with the Brisbane Heat’s medical team to determine his Big Bash League availability.”
