Harris form may delay Headingley start
12:54pm Friday 29th January 2010 in
Ryan Harris, Yorkshire’s new overseas signing, claimed his second consecutive five-wicket haul as Australia downed Pakistan in a one-day international at Perth.
The 30-year-old snared five for 19 in just his third international, form which has heightened the possibility that the Tykes could be without the paceman for longer than they thought.
Harris was already due to miss the first month of the season because of Indian Premier League commitments.
But he now looks a good bet to be selected for the World Twenty20, the one-day international matches against England and two more Twenty20s against Pakistan.
There are also Test matches to follow against Pakistan and, if Harris is not selected for those, he may only arrive at Headingley in mid-July.
Australia’s win over Pakistan leaves them 4-0 up in the five-match series.
