Australian uncapped all-rounder Beau Webster has been considered to be added to Australia’s Test squad owing to the injury concerns of all-rounder Mitchell Marsh. Webster has been the star for Australia A, scoring vital runs down the order while also picking wickets at regular intervals with his sublime accuracy. Beau Webster turned himself into a medium pacer from off-spinner, as he now has more considerable success as a seamer.
Webster was also considered to replace Cameron Green in the Australian side for his commendable performances with the Tasmanian team in the Sheffield Shield. He was also effective with both bat and ball for Australia A against India A over the two four-day matches.
Given the raising concerns over Mitchell Marsh’s fitness, Webster could play a vital role in the Day/Night Adelaide Test, especially since his bowling antics can be quite new for the Indian batters with the pink ball.
Speculations over KL Rahul’s position in the 11 for the Adelaide D/N Test
Indian batter KL Rahul has been the most adaptive batter in the side, coming in to bat at any preferred position, as he just wants to continue with the Indian team. In the Perth Test, the absence of skipper Rohit Sharma marked Rahul’s return as the team India opener.
Dispute Rahul’s heroic innings at Perth alongside fellow young mate Jaiswal; he might be demoted down the order. With Devdutt Padikkal’s weak performance in the debut test and Shubman Gill doubtful for the second test as of now, Rahul might be seen coming in at no. 3.
Though nothing is sure as of now, hence KL Rahul is sure for the Adelaide Test, but whether he will replace the likes of Gill or Jurel would be a matter to look at.
