Head ruled out of fifth ODI against Sri Lanka due to hamstring injury

Australia's center request hitter, Travis Head has been controlled out of the fifth and last ODI against Sri Lanka to be played in Colombo on Friday (June 24) because of a hamstring injury.

Head supported a second rate hamstring injury while handling in the fourth ODI of the series. "It's a touch to a greater extent a safety measure, particularly with where he fields," Aaron Finch said in the presser in front of the last ODI. "He handles in the outfield and the ground is very weighty and he does a ton of Ks.

"I don't know what he'll resemble for the Tests yet he's most certainly not accessible for later," he added.

On the off chance that Head is likewise governed out of the initial Test against Sri Lanka, beginning on Wednesday in Galle, then a couple of the players from the Australia A crew - Marcus Harris, Matthew Renshaw and Nic Maddinson - could come into conflict. Australia An are likewise presently visiting Sri Lanka to play one-day and top notch games.

In the interim, Steven Smith (quad niggle) and Mitchell Starc (finger injury) won't return for the last ODI, with their center moving towards the Test series. Sri Lanka have taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match ODI series.
