Clarke faces fitness test

AFP, Adelaide
Australia captain Michael Clarke faces a fitness test at training on Saturday to check on his chances of playing in next week's first Test against India, coach Darren Lehmann said.
Clarke, troubled by a third hamstring setback since August, ran at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Friday before heading to Adelaide to join the Australia squad later in the day.
The skipper, who was one of the pallbearers and led the tributes at the funeral of his close friend and Test batsman Phillip Hughes on Wednesday, will be given every chance of taking the field in the series opener against India at theAdelaide Oval on Tuesday.
"As long as he's fine to do the running and can bat, he'll play,” coach and selector Lehmann told reporters.
"He flies in this afternoon. We'll get him batting tomorrow and see how he goes.
"If he’s fine, he'll play. We'll just have to wait and see.
"We'll be guided by medical staff, the captain himself and selectors. We'll get together and assess what the plan is tomorrow."
Clarke and the entire Test squad attended Hughes's funeral in Macksville in northern New South Wales on Wednesday.
On Thursday, Clarke attended a private cremation service with Hughes' family in their home town while his
teammates began to make their way to Adelaide.
"He's mentally strong, as you saw throughout the week," Lehmann said of Clarke ahead of what is shaping up as an emotionalTest
"He held himself together really well and led the team really well."
Batsman Shaun Marsh has been added to Australia's Test squad as cover for Clarke.
Lehmann said it was too early to speculate who would be emotionally ready to start the Adelaide Test given the traumatic lead-in to the series.
“Time will tell, but today we'll get out there and see how we go," he said prior to Australia's first training session since Hughes was fatally struck by a bouncer in a domestic game.
