Scans showed the 34-year-old Hazlewood avoided a muscle strain. The 33-year-old Abbott, yet to debut, has a "moderate grade" injury

"We're a week away from the Test series - typically prefer precautionary measures," stated the captain
"They wanted to find out the exact situation prior to testing it and potentially making the condition"
"Uncommon to see him cheerful, so it was good to see him smiling"
"He knows his body really well. He appeared slightly anxious (and) wanted to get medical assessment"
