MacGill injured in camp

Sydney: Leg-spinner Stuart MacGill suffered a knee injury during the five-day boot camp held recently.

Returning from the adventure, the players had complained only of aches and pains. But, more than a week after the drills finished, MacGill did not participate in his club New South Wales' training session, Sydney Morning Herald reported on Tuesday. The paper also claimed that four players were hurt during the camp.

Cricket Australia (CA) spokesman Peter Young confirmed MacGill's injury to the newspaper, but said the safety levels during the camp were ``appropriate.''

``This was one of the main issues discussed before the camp, which in formal terms is called risk assessment or risk management. With this programme, we were conscious that we did not want to risk our elite athletes.

``There are a few aches and pains... Stuart has been told to take it easy for a week,'' Young said. — UNI
