West Indies fast bowler Jerome Taylor has been ruled out of the remainder of the tour of Australia because of injuries to his left hip and back.
The 25-year-old bowled only nine overs on the opening day of the first Test, which the Windies lost by an innings.
He will return home, with a decision on a replacement expected on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, uncapped fast bowler Clinton McKay has been called into Australia\'s squad for the second Test on Friday, following an injury to Ben Hilfenhaus.
Having claimed 5-70 in his first Test on Australian soil as the hosts won the opening match of the series, Hilfenhaus succumbed to a long-term knee injury.
