Australia included David Warner for the last two Tests against India on Wednesday, December 30th. He has replaced Joe Burns in the side, who was dropped out from the squad.
David Warner was ruled out of the Border-Gavaskar Test series due to a groin injury which he sustained during 2nd ODI at SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground).
The return of Warner will make a big impact on the Australian side as Australia has struggled to make a good opening partnership so far.
David Warner scored 69 and 83 in the 1st &2nd ODI apiece. Warner has almost recovered from his injury.
Cricket Australia selector Trevor Hohns said, “ David has made strong progress in his recovery from injury and will be given every chance to play in Sydney with another seven days until the match”.
Will Pucovski who got hit on the head during the 1st practice game against India A might make his test debut in the 3rd test match at SCG, which will start from 7th January. Will was about to make his Test debut in the1st test match on 17th December.
Australia lost the Boxing day test match on 30th December and the series is now on. High-level competition is expected to be watched on the 3rd Test match. It will be exciting to see how India continues and how the Aussies make a comeback to win the series.
