MELBOURNE (Reuters) - A dreadful run of injuries prompted Australia fast bowler Nathan Coulter-Nile to consider packing in first class cricket to become a Twenty20 gun-for-hire but after a welcome return to fitness the 29-year-old is now eyeing a test berth.
The Western Australian made an encouraging return in Australia's series-opening one-day international defeat by India in Chennai, tearing through the hosts' formidable top order to capture 3-44.
