The search for a Test-class left-armer, a universal
pursuit, led Australia to Nathan Bracken. Tall and slim like Bruce
Reid, Bracken bowls a full length, moves the ball both ways and
fitted easily into Australia's rampant one-day squad in 2000-01. He
has also been instrumental in resuscitating New South Wales's
fortunes. A shoulder injury cut short his maiden Ashes tour in 2001
after just two matches, but after a spell on the sidelines he
returned to the national colours during the 2003 World Cup, when
Jason Gillespie dropped out with a heel injury. His Test debut
finally came against India in 2003-04, but in three outings against
the powerful Indian batting line-up he failed to make real inroads.
In the spring of 2004 he was omitted from Cricket Australia's list
of centrally-contracted players.
