Tim Paine takes 'indefinite mental health break'
Tim Paine is stepping away from cricket for an "indefinite mental health break", his manager said on Friday, leaving Australia's Ashes preparations in disarray a week after the wicketkeeper's resignation from the captaincy. Paine was due to play for Tasmania in a domestic one-day match in Hobart on Friday in the lead up to the first Ashes Test in Brisbane on Dec. 8, but will be unavailable for the "foreseeable future", the state's cricket association said.
