Brett Lee is set to return from injury at the Twenty20 World Championship, according to Robert Craddock in the Courier-Mail.

Lee believes he has recovered fully from the off-season surgery on his left ankle that cost him a place in Australia's victorious World Cup squad. "I'm 100%," Lee said.

Shaun Tait is expected to make Australia's 15-man squad despite not having bowled yet after undergoing elbow surgery last month, writes Malcolm Conn in the Australian.

Tait has started fitness training with South Australia but will be unable to ease back into bowling for at least a fortnight. "If picked in the Twenty20 stuff I'd obviously like to go but if it's not quite right I won't risk it," Tait said yesterday. "Playing for Australia is great, but to risk it in a Twenty20 tournament would be silly."
