Cricket Australia today confirmed that Australia vice-captain Shane Watson and fast bowler Brett Lee will return to Australia today for further medical assessment on calf injuries sustained during the fourth ODI against England on Saturday.

Australia Team Doctor John Orchard said: "Shane Watson and Brett Lee have calf strains - Shane to the left and Brett to the right calf - sustained during the fourth ODI against England at Durham. This is the opposite calf to the injury Shane had last summer. Because both players will miss the final game, they are flying back to Sydney for MRI scans and further treatment. At this stage, they are anticipated to be available for consideration for selection for the ICC World Twenty20, with scan results and response to treatment to determine whether they will be available for consideration for selection for the coming series against Pakistan in the UAE."
