London, July 17: Australia are set to go into the second Ashes test against England with an unchanged side after declaring injured trio Brett Lee, Matthew Hayden and Michael Slater available for selection.

Coach John Buchanan said: "Hayden was the one giving us a little concern but he seems to have pulled through. They all came through training with flying colours."

But opening batsman Hayden appeared to be limping after Tuesday's practice at Lord's.

He injured his right knee fielding in the warm-up game against Somerset, which finished on Monday, and is likely to be replaced by Justin Langer if he fails to fully recover for the second test, which begins on Thursday.

Pace bowler Lee has recovered from a rib problem that kept him out of the Somerset game but he remains under pressure after Damien Fleming, his main rival, continued his prolific tour by taking eight wickets in that match, including six for 59 in the first innings.

Lee was selected for the tour following elbow surgery and was preferred to Fleming for the first test at Edgbaston, but he gave up 71 runs without taking a wicket in the first innings before taking two for 37 in the second as Australia won by an innings and 118 runs.
