Gloucestershire will miss Spearman's explosive batting
|
Gloucestershire's injury problems have worsened with the news that frontline batsman Craig Spearman faces up to six weeks out with a broken foot.
The 34-year-old Kiwi batsman injured his foot in the warm-up ahead of last Thursday's thrashing of Ireland in the Friends Provident Trophy.
He returned to the county in plaster before scans revealed a broken bone.
It means he is a serious doubt for the pool stages of the Twenty20 Cup, which start on 22 June.
Physio Steve Griffin, said: "Craig has had an MRI scan, is currently in plaster and we will know more after seeing the consultant on Monday."
