Ryan Harris will not be playing for Yorkshire in May after being asked to rest by Cricket Australia.

The Club have been informed that Ryan has a few niggles after his recent exploits for Australia and has been asked to rest up with one eye on his country's tour of England later in the summer.

There is no guarantee that Harris will be picked in that squad, which will not be announced until after the ICC World Twenty20 has been completed.

The Club will now take some time to consider its options and will not be in a position to make further comment until that deliberation process has been completed.
