Aussie women expect fit Gardner for Ashes

Allrounder Ashleigh Gardner is expected to overcome concussion symptoms to play for Australia in the third ODI of the women's Ashes.

Australia expect to have allrounder Ashleigh Gardner back from concussion symptoms for on Sunday's third women's Ashes one-dayer against England.

Gardner suffered concussion in Australia's series-opening win last weekend in Brisbane, but completed a full training session on Saturday after missing Thursday's second game of the tournament.

"She's got a little bit of momentum there from the first game. You saw a little glimpse of what she is capable of, so it's exciting that she'll come back in," captain Rachael Haynes said.
