Star Australian all rounder Cameron Green has been ruled out of the ongoing Sydney Test series against South Africa. Notably, he suffered from a fracture on his right index finger. The 23 year old all-rounder took a blow facing a deadly bowl from Anrich Nortje.
He was retired hurt on day two of the second Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Tuesday. Cricket Australia in a statement said that “Cameron Green has a small fracture on his right index finger.”
“He will bat again in this match but will not bowl, followed by a period of recovery leading into the tour of India.”

“You try to not show the pain straightaway,” the allrounder told cricket.com.au. “I marked my guard again and walked a couple of steps, and I was like ‘I reckon my finger is out of place here’.
“I checked on it – it looked a little bit inverted is the only way I can explain it. It already had a big cut in it, then I got the bad news after the scan,” Green was quoted as saying by Cricket Australia.
