Brett Lee's career might not be over

The career of the Australian fast bowler Brett Lee might not be over, despite the injury which has ruled him out of the Twenty20 World Cup cricket tournament in the West Indies.

After sitting out the last two Australian summers with different injuries, 33-year-old Lee is back home from the Caribbean for treatment on a strained muscle in his right forearm.

Lee is reported to be shattered about his latest injury setback, but the Australian team physio Alex Kountouris thinks his recovery time could be as little as five weeks, and he could be playing again by June.

Lee last played for his country in a one day game against India last October.
