Wednesday, 20 June 2007


CHESTER-LE-STREET, England, June 19 (AFP): England fast bowler Stephen Harmison is to undergo surgery for a "non-serious hernia" operation, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced Tuesday.
However, an ECB spokesman said the timing of the operation had still to be decided and stressed Harmison's ability to bowl was not being affected.
Harmison took the field Tuesday for the last day of the fourth and final Test against the West Indies at his Durham home ground here at the Riverside.
