New South Wales and Australian batsman, Nic Maddinson, has taken an indefinite break from cricket due to personal reasons.
The 25-year-old, who made his Test debut late last year, will miss this week's Sheffield Shield clash and did not play in the Blues' win over Victoria last week.
"Cricket Australia and Cricket NSW advises that Australian and NSW batsman Nic Maddinson will not be available for selection due to personal reasons, until further notice," CA and CNSW said in a joint statement on Wednesday.
Maddinson's return remains unknown at this stage.
