Bushranger trio Ian Harvey, Mathew Inness and Shane Harwood will have to prove their fitness, prior to being selected for the Bushrangers Pura Cup match against the Southern Redbacks at the MCG this Friday.

All three players have been included in a fifteen-man squad for the clash after missing the previous two Pura Cup matches. Bushrangers coach David Hookes said the final decision would be made on Thursday. "We'll put Ian, Mathew and Shane through a series of match scenario tests and assess their individual conditions accordingly".

Matthew Elliott returns to the side after Australia A duties while Shane Warne will be in Adelaide for the Second Test of the Orange Test Series.
