Healey out of Sydney decider
July 14, 2001

Lion Austin Healey has been ruled out of the deciding Test against Australia after failing a late fitness test.

"My back gave way when I went for my usual eve-of-match walk. I collapsed in pain and had to sit down because I could not stand up," the versatile player said.

Healey is replaced by Dafydd James and there is also a shock call up for Scotland's Andy Nicol, who was on holiday in Sydney, into the 22 as a replacement.
