Knee surgery sidelines Sales

Northamptonshire batsman David Sales will miss the rest of the county season due to ongoing knee trouble.
The 31-year-old has not featured for the Steelbacks at all this summer and requires an operation to reconstruct his knee.
Sales told the club's official website: "Although I could possibly have played this year, the longer-term view was that it could flare up again.
"That would mean missing yet more cricket and possibly even jeopardising my whole career.
"I am now looking forward to scheduling the operation as soon as possible and working hard post op to get ready for 2010."
