Australian Test cricket star Ryan Harris has said that he is not sure if he would play in the first Test against India because of the emotional crisis after the death of teammate Phillip Hughes.

According to News.com.au, Harris said that he was still thinking and was unsure of playing in the first Test.

The 35-year old returned to training today with the Queensland Bulls and said that he could not deal with so much at the same time.

Harris' surgically repaired knee has recovered and is fine to play the Adelaide Test but due to the emotional fit of losing Hughes, he is uncertain of playing.

He has been busy in the recent past and has not had the time to think about the tragic loss, Harris added.

Only a few Australian players have returned to training including Shane Watson who was seen at the SCG practice nets.
