Hussain: Gough May Be A No-Go

England captain Nasser Hussain has hinted that Darren Gough may not play any part in the Ashes series.

Gough has already been ruled out of the first Test which begins in Brisbane on Thursday and has been sent to the Adelaide academy to receive intensive treatment on his knee injury.

Hussain stopped short of definitely ruling Gough out of the series, but was more concerned with the Yorkshire fast bowler's long-term future.

He said: "It's been going on for a year or so and Darren is very disappointed.

"We need to get him right. It sounds blase but I'm not worried about the Ashes as far as Darren goes now.

"I'm just worried about getting Darren back," Hussain told BBC Radio 5 Live.
