Hussain doubtful for Oval Test after breaking toe

Nasser Hussain is doubtful for the final Test at The Oval after breaking his toe while batting against South Africa at Headingley on Saturday.

Hussain sustained the injury when he was struck on his left big toe by an inswinging Yorker from Andrew Hall during England's first innings. He batted on Sunday with the help of pain-killing injections.

There were suggestions that Hussain suffered the break when he kicked a dressing-room door in frustration following his first-innings dismissal by Jacques Rudolph. "There are various conspiracy theories doing the rounds but it's straightforward - I got hit by Hall," Hussain told Channel 4. "If I had kicked a door it would have been right-footed."
