Six and Out - Some Serious Cricket

Gilo to play in Australia. Maybe.

A knee injury that has kept him from playing for the best part of a year. That’s right - no cricket in a year. It’s bad enough that Michael Vaughan thinks he’s going to be available to play, but now Gilo as well?

That’s not to say he’s a shoe-in as newboy Monty Panesar has earned his wings and fortunately Gilo knows he needs to earn his place.

“He’s the guy who has done well, he’s in possession and it’s up to me to try to win that place back. If I don’t, I support.
