Stuart Broad's IPL debut put on hold as calf strain rules him out for a further three weeks Broad, 25, was scheduled to return from his IPL commitments to play for Nottinghamshire in their County Championship match against Middlesex at Trent Bridge starting on May 9 and that match is still expected to mark his comeback. Slow left-armer Monty Panesar, who was dropped for last weekend's second Test in Colombo, is available for Sussex's match against defending champions Lancashire at Aigburth. Panesar, who is in his third season with Sussex after he was released by Northamptonshire in 2009, signed a new three-year contract last winter. All-rounder Samit Patel, who made his Test debut against Sri Lanka in Galle, will play for Nottinghamshire against Durham at Chester-le-Street and will bat at four for the county who want to help Patel establish himself at six in England's batting order for next month's series against the West Indies. Reserve wicketkeeper Steve Davies and off-spinner James Tredwell, neither of whom played in the series in Sri Lanka, are also back on county duty. Davies will play for Surrey against Middlesex at Lord's. Tredwell returns for Kent against Northamptonshire at Wantage Road.
