Caddick has scan on back injury

The England fast bowler Andrew Caddick today underwent an MRI scan on his injured back in Adelaide.

England physiotherapist , Kirk Russell, said afterwards: "The scan has revealed long-standing wear and tear consistent with a fast bowler of Andrew's age which is continuing to cause him pain. He will have a steroid injection into his back in Perth tomorrow and his fitness will be re-assessed at nets on Wednesday. At this stage, he has not been ruled out of the 3rd Test."
