BRIAN LARA is expected to miss today's important sixth Cable &
Wireless One-Day International against Australia at Kensington
Oval at 9:35 a.m.
The West Indies captain is still not fully fit as his "sore and
painful" right wrist is not fully healed.
Jimmy Adams, who filled the role admirably in Lara's absence in
Guyana on Wednesday, is again at the helm.
West Indies, who have been plagued by either injury or illness
to key players in every game so far, have another casualty in
allrounder Phil Simmons, who has not recovered from an injury
sustained on Wednesday.
Veteran pacers Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh will also be
missing.
Australia are expected to welcome back ace paceman Glenn
McGrath, who has shrugged off the ankle injury he picked up last
Saturday in Trinidad.
