| Injured Handscomb doubtful for India tour | | | agencies
AUSTRALIA, Jan 14: Australia batter Peter Handscomb will be racing against time to recover for next month's India tour after suffering a hip injury.
The 31-year-old sustained the injury while attempting to play a pull shot in club cricket in Victoria on Tuesday night and left the field retired hurt after collapsing in pain three balls later following another pull shot.
"Scans have since confirmed soft-tissue damage in his right hip," a report in cricket.Com.Au said on Friday.
"Officials are confident Handscomb will be fit to leave with the Australian team later this month for the Qantas tour of India." Australia, who haven't won a Test series in India since 2004, are battling a string of injuries issues with their key players Mitchell Starc and Cameron Green both recovering from finger injuries.
