England call up Durham seamer after injuries

Durham bowler Mark Davies has been called into the England Test squad as cover for the struggling James Anderson and Ryan Sidebottom.

The 29-year-old, who is in South Africa as part of the England Performance Programme, took 19 wickets at an average of 29 in the 2009 Championship season.

Sidebottom is struggling with a side strain while Anderson has not travelled with the rest of the squad, staying behind in Durban to have an injection on his troublesome knee.

It was thought the Lancashire bowler's knee struggles were behind him but he has continued to experience pain from the mystery complaint.ADNFCR-708-ID-19497571-ADNFCR
