Harris, nicknamed 'Rhino' for his strong physique, complained of a stiff hamstring on the final day of the drawn second Test in Pallekele on Monday and went off the field. "He's a strong bloke and will do anything to get on the park. We're confident that if the scan shows nothing, he will certainly be available for the third Test," said skipper Michael Clarke.
