Darren Lehmann to miss T20 series against India due to illness
The Cricket Australia website said the coach has been diagnosed with Deep Venous Thrombosis.
"Lehmann will spend the next few days in hospital and not fly to Adelaide with the rest of the team on Sunday for the first T20 on Tuesday," the website said.
Batting coach Michael Di Venuto act as the interim coach of the team.
Cricket Australia's Chief Medical Officer Dr John Orchard was quoted as saying by the website: "It's more a scare than something to worry about, but it will require him to have a bit of an absence because we'll be playing it safe."
