Glenn McGrath is a rated no more than 50/50 to be fit to play in the first Test against Zimbabwe, which starts at Perth on October 9. McGrath underwent surgery on his ankle in August, and only started bowling in the nets on Wednesday.
Errol Alcott, Australia's physiotherapist, said that McGrath would not be rushed back into action. "He now has to increase his workload and not pull up with any soreness," he explained. "At this stage it's still touch and go, we still have to go through a few checkpoints first."
McGrath is due to have his ankle re-examined next week, although a final decision on whether he will play at Perth is not likely to be made until the end of the month.
