Troubled all-rounder Andrew Symonds will not be considered for next month's Test series against South Africa
Troubled all-rounder Andrew Symonds will not be considered for next month's Test series against South Africa after Cricket Australia found him lacking in commitment and declared him "unavailable" for selection until the completion of his counselling and rehabilitation.
"Cricket Australia (CA) has advised its National Selection Panel (NSP) that Andrew Symonds cannot be considered for national selection until he has completed further counselling and rehabilitation," CA said in a statement.
