LONDON - England has called up James Kirtley to replace fast bowler
Darren Gough for its one-day cricket squad.
The England squad has been hit by a string of injuries while in
Australia and Kirtley has been added to the list of one-day specialists
for the triangular series against Australia and Sri Lanka in December
and January.
Kirtley married three weeks ago but will cut his honeymoon short for his
first playing tour of Australia.
"It gives me the opportunity to play against the some of the best
players in the world on some of the best pitches in the world, so it is
the ultimate test for me. It is sad that Goughie is unfit but it gives
me a chance to show what I can do," he said.
