This was a disappointing setback for Ogilvie after the Kookaburras lost the final of the Shah Cup to Great Britain 4-3.
"I came straight back to Perth with the team so I could get a scan on my hamstring which tore off and will need surgery to reattach it," Ogilvie said on his return.
“It looks like I will be out for at least six months and maybe longer, just depends how well it recovers."
