Western Australia fast bowler Lance Morris has suffered yet another injury set back having required medical treatment for a cut to his non-bowling hand on Saturday night following his first professional match back from lumbar surgery.

WA Cricket released a statement on Monday revealing that Morris had injured his left hand and would consult a hand specialist on Monday to determine the extent of the injury. However, how the injury happened has not been revealed. The injury occurred hours after the completion of the match.

The timing of the injury could not be worse for Morris coming off a successful return to professional ranks after 18 months out due to back surgery. In his first game for WA since surgery, he took 3 for 29 from 10 overs, with two maidens, against England's ODI line-up including dismissing Tom Banton and Joe Root with extra pace and bounce.

Morris' return to WA colours had previously been delayed after he suffered a side strain late in the pre-season. Following the performance against England he was being set for another start against Victoria in the One-Day Cup next Monday.

When he will be able to return to action remains to be seen. Australia's chair of selectors George Bailey said prior to the injury being revealed that he was excited by what he saw from Morris against England.

"Just excited and happy to see Lance back playing," Bailey said on Monday. "I think particularly that latest setback he had just prior to the start of the season, it just felt like just give the man a little bit of luck. But so yeah, great to see him back on on Saturday against against England, and pretty impressed by how quickly he seemed to get back into into his work and bowled good pace and good areas, and got a nice performance outcome. But overall, just really happy to see him back."
