Hayden attacked by dog

[Skater]

A bad week for the batsman.

Australia opening batsman Matthew Hayden is certain he will be fit for the first Ashes Test despite being attacked by a dog while jogging.

Hayden suffered a 5cm-long ankle wound in what he called a "vicious attack". It came a week after he broke a finger.

Read the full story here.

Poor guy, hopefully he gets better in time for the Ashes but this certainly won't help his build up for it. MacGill also has problems after being suspended so thats 2 Ashes players that will lack match practice.

I must admit, I LOLed when I read the thread title. But seriously, I hope he recovers well. Sounds nasty!

It was probably a Brittish Bulldog.

But seriously this sucks. Must've actually been a pretty big dog to take Hayden down.

The dog didn't bite his finger, it caused a wound on his ankle!

Practice? Pffff....when you have natural talent, practice is unnecessary.

I'd imigane they'd give Hayden a good chance in the VB series to state his claim over a World Cup place seeing as Katich is being thrown to the cleaners & if Watson continues to fail in the ICC Champions Trophy.

I hope they do, as highly as I do rate Watson as a batsman, Haydos a far better opening batsman.
