Nobody welcomes the Australian summer as much as Callum Ferguson. While his South Australian teammates were toiling away last season, Ferguson was at home on the couch, nursing his reconstructed right knee, learning guitar and are planning a trip to Augusta to watch the U.S. Masters. There were many other things he could do. This time last year, Ferguson began to imitate Australia next breakthrough player. It was established in the ODI team and could have been used for the press his Test claims, but those dreams ended when he twisted his knee while meeting in the Champions Trophy final in Africa South. Finally, it is back in action. Ferguson made his comeback last month in the Twenty20 Champions League, where he showed he had lost none of its ability, by issuing two centuries and a half and finished fifth in tournament scoring running. More importantly, he finished the journey without lingering pain.

"I'm really happy with how the knee is pulled up," said Ferguson ESPNcricinfo. "I'm loving right next to it, go back to playing with the kids and be a dressing room again. I was going to my first real race in the back and you're always a bit 'nervous. But I've been as excited about the knee delayed. E 'tested very strong in the last three weeks. " Now begins the next leg of his return.

Zaheer, who smoked the second session during a confrontation with Ricky Ponting, scored his second when he took a LBW Michael Hussey (17) with a reverse swinging delivery and Marcus North followed by cutting off the carrier when he tried to take a trip 0

Zaheer finished with 3 for 45 off 16 overs to pursue the collection of fines by a team that fought during the first half of the day. The locals would have been happier had MS Dhoni, who returned from the Twenty20 Champions League two days ago, made a settlement out of luck Tim Paine (1 not out). On a low bounce and land in return, Watson has started in an aggressive mood, but attenuated when Ponting and Michael Clarke left before tea, leaving the tourists on an uncomfortable 172 for the third So starting to Ponting 71 was Australia were the control group, but its execution to a change of pace, and Watson began to grind against three digits.
