Robinson recalled by Poms

Published on: 

England fast bowler Ollie Robinson will make his first Test appearance since January after being called up Wednesday for the second match of the series against South Africa, having proved his fitness following a string of niggling injuries.

Robinson will replace Matt Potts in England's only change for the Old Trafford test starting Thursday.

Robinson was England's leading wicket-taker with 28 in his first summer of Test cricket last year but has since struggled with injuries, with his fitness publicly criticised by bowling coach Jon Lewis during the Ashes tour Down Under.
