George Bailey said on Friday that 25-year-old pace bowler Jhye Richardson’s struggles to remain fit were the main reason why he was not on the list of 20 centrally contracted men’s players announced on Thursday.

Richardson had headlined the second Ashes Test at Adelaide late last year, grabbing a five-wicket haul as Australia went on to take a 2-0 lead, before clinching the five-match series 4-0.
