MELBOURNE :Tim Paine is stepping away from cricket for an"indefinite mental health break", his manager said on Friday, leaving Australia's Ashes preparations in disarray a week after the wicketkeeper's resignation from the captaincy.
"We are extremely concerned for his and Bonnie’s well-being and will be making no further comment at this time." Selectors chairman George Bailey, however, confirmed Paine was no lock for the series while coming back from neck surgery. "Cricket Tasmania will continue to support Tim and his family both professionally and personally over the summer."Paine, who was the only specialist wicketkeeper named in Australia's 15-man Ashes squad, is likely to be replaced by experienced white ball wicketkeeper Alex Carey or Josh Inglis, both of whom were named in the recent Australia 'A' squad.
