England vs Australia | 1st ODI Cricket Match | Denly in doubt for first ODI

England batsman Joe Denly was assisted from The Oval with a knee injury sustained during Thursday’s training session. Denly clutched at his left knee while playing football with his England team-mates prior to practice and was carried to the dressing room by team staff.

His place atop the England order for Friday’s opening one-day international against Australia is now in doubt, although it is uncertain whether England have called in a replacement. An England spokesman confirmed that the injury was currently being looked at the ECB medical staff, but said that there were no further details available at this stage.

The injury was sustained as Denly toppled forwards following a collision with Owais Shah. His left leg caught in the turf as he lost balance, and after rolling on impact he took several moments before attempting to flex his knee. Though he was initially able to leave the field unaided, he had to be helped up the steep flight of steps to the dressing rooms.

Denly scored a half-century on his ODI debut against Ireland last Thursday.

Denly’s injury is not the first time an England player has been struck down while playing football in the warm-ups. Matt Prior suffered back spasms during such a game on the morning of the Headingley Test, and played with the assistance of pain-killing injections.
