Cricket Australia on Thursday cleared George Bailey fit to play the fourth One-Day International (ODI) against England at Perth. Michael Clarke won’t be part of the team for the fourth ODI.
Out of 37 ODIs that Bailey has played, he has led Australia in 12 ODI. Australia has won four of those matches, lost six and two matches had no result.
Mitchell Johnson has been made Bailey’s deputy.
Brad Haddin has been allowed to stay back at his home, due to which Johnson steps in as the vice-captain.
