Peter Siddle is expected to be fit the start Australia's series against the West Indies after a day-night Test in which he took his 200th wicket and hit the winning runs while having to cope with a back ailment and the death of his grandmother.
When Siddle reached his wickets milestone, on Friday, he explained his kiss to the sky was a tribute not only to his late teammate Phillip Hughes but also to his ill grandmother. His appearance on Adelaide Oval with two black armbands for the third, and ultimately final, day of the series-ending Test against New Zealand was because she had subsequently died.
Siddle finished 9 not-out as Australia reached the victory target of 187 with three wickets in hand.
Stay Tuned
