Australian fast bowlers Brett Lee and Mitchell Johnson will miss Tuesday's Twenty20 match against England at the Sydney Cricket Ground through illness and injury, Cricket Australia said.
 
Lee is troubled by a chest inflection and Johnson has an abdominal strain, CA said in a statement. Victorian fast bowler Shane Harwood and Queensland all-rounder James Hopes have been called into the Australian squad as replacements. "Brett is suffering from a chest infection that has developed over> the last 24 hours and he will be assessed by a doctor later today," Australian team physiotherapist Alex Kountouris said in the statement. "Mitchell has a minor abdominal strain which occurred late yesterday and as a precautionary measure we have decided it best for him not to play tonight. The assessment of both players will continue over the next few days to determine whether they will be fit for the first one-day international match against England in Melbourne on Friday."LATEST SCORES
