Wishart to undergo scan

Craig Wishart will undergo an MRI scan at Adelaide on Tuesday to determine the extent of damage to his knee after injuring it in Zimbabwe's warm-up match against Western Australia at Perth. Wishart twisted his left knee while batting and was unable to resume his innings.

Brad Robinson, the Zimbabwean physiotherapist, said that the extent of damage would be known only after the scan. "At the moment the knee is swollen and sore and Craig has trouble putting weight on the joint. He had surgery to repair a torn cartilage in the same knee about five years ago but at this stage we cannot determine if this is a related injury or something entirely different."

Zimbabwe play their third warm-up game, against Australia A, on January 7 at Adelaide, before starting their VB Series campaign with a match against Australia on January 11.
