Broad and Anderson fit for Adelaide Test

England fast bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson are fit and available for the second Ashes test against Australia in Adelaide, head coach Chris Silverwood said on Sunday.

Broad and Anderson share 1,156 Test wickets between them but they were rested for the opening Test in Gabba, which England lost by nine wickets to trail 1-0 in the five-match series.

The second match, a day-night contest, starts on Thursday at Adelaide Oval.

"They are available, yes," Silverwood told British media on Sunday. "Jimmy will be fit and ready to go for the second Test, as will Stuart. (But) I have not told anyone they are playing yet."

Australia have won every day-night Test they have played, including the last Ashes clash in Adelaide during the 2017-18 series.

Meanwhile, Australia fast bowler Josh Hazlewood will miss the second Ashes test in Adelaide with a side injury, Cricket Australia said on Monday.

Hazlewood's injury during the nine-wicket win over England at the Gabba opens the door for Jhye Richardson or Michael Neser to bowl for Australia at Adelaide Oval.

Hazlewood bowled sparingly during England's second innings of the series-opener and headed home to Sydney for scans on Sunday rather than travel with the team to Adelaide.

The hosts also have injury concern with opener David Warner struggling with bruised ribs.
