| Matthew Hayden suffered a fractured big toe in the final one-dayer against New Zealand in Hamilton and is a doubt for the start of the World Cup. Hayden smashed 181 not out, the best score ever by an Australian in ODIs. But he was hit on his right boot by a yorker while helping his team to a total of 346-5 against the Kiwis. Australian physio Alex Kountouris said: "Matthew will see a specialist in Brisbane on Wednesday when his medical management will be outlined." At the same time, Australia hope to announce when Hayden will be able to resume playing. The Aussies, holders of the World Cup and favourites to win this time, have been hit by poor form and injuries of late. Pace spearhead Brett Lee (ankle) is only 50-50 for the tournament, while key all-rounder Andrew Symonds (torn bicep) is expected to miss all the group games. Batsman Michael Clarke has hip soreness - though is not expected to miss Australia's first match on 14 March. Australia's first game against seeded opposition comes against South Africa 10 days later. | |
