England's opening batsman
Joe Denlyhas suffered a knee injury in training ahead of the 1st One Day International against Australia.
Denly 23, has been very prolific for Kent in County Cricket and he was rewarded by earning himself and ODI debut against Ireland last week, Denly took full advantage of this as he scored 67 in Belfast.
Denly was playing football with his England team mates when he suffered the injury, many questions have been raised earlier in the season as to whether football should be part of a professional cricketers warm up routine is this latest incident is likely to fuel that debate even further.
England go into the ODI series with a lot of confidence after they managed to regain the Ashes 2-1 last week.
Australia on the other hand will be desperate not to leave England empty handed and to show the Cricketing world exactly why they are the 50 over world champions.
If England play to their potential then they have every chance of upsetting the
Betting Oddsand winning the ODI series.
