Shane Warne has injured his right shoulder in the one day match at the MCG, and will probably miss the World Cup.
This brings up the question of who will go a the spinner to the World Cup. The selectors already know what MacGill can do and he has never let them down in the past. But they have recently turned against him. Should they take the young inexperienced Hauritz or the ever reliable (second best spinner in the country) MacGill?
The other big question is whether this is a career threatening injury? We all know that he has just recently reached his peak again after his last lot of shoulder injury (on the same shoulder), and may not be able to come back from an injurry such as this for the second time.

yep! i was just listening, cause i got back from the MCG early cause my dad had to go to wonthaggi! he's dislocated it or something and stuart Mcgill will probebly relace him in the melbourne test and the SCG test, and there is a slim chance that he will miss the whole world cup cause u cant come in half way threw!

On the TV they spoke to the doctor of the Aust. side and he said it would be 4-6weeks(dislocated shoulder), but they dont know what other damage had been done. Have we seen the last of the great man? (Murali - greatest test bowler of all time? I could name 4 or 5 better (Warne,McGrath,Hadlee,Lillee etc) - at least they're not chuckers.

Devastating to see! The crowd hushed when Warney went down. But we didn't know what had happened at first. Initially I thought he had busted a finger, but the way he was writhing around on the ground, you could tell it was much more serious. A few people around us thought he had done a knee, but then we heard it was his shoulder.
I reckon he'll still make it back for the World Cup - he has said before that he really wanted to play in this so I think his determination will see him make his comeback in the WC. FIngers crossed!

Great News!!!
I hope he gets back, but if he can't I think they should select Steve Waugh cause of his experience. Especially after the team would loose all of Warnes experience and may not be able to stand up as tall under intense pressure.

Warne could be back on Thursday
Roger Vaughan - 20 January 2003
MELBOURNE, Jan 20 AAP - Australia could regain leg-spinner Shane Warne for Thursday's first one-day cricket final against England at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
Warne reported he pulled up well from bowling for Victoria in yesterday's match against Tasmania.
National team physiotherapist Errol Alcott will examine Warne's right bowling shoulder tomorrow.
Alcott said provided there were no unexpected problems, he could clear Warne for national selection.
"I've seen Shane today and he says his shoulder is excellent, he says he `fizzed' a couple (of deliveries) yesterday and he's very happy," Alcott said.
