The Australian team, which lost the Perth Test in just 4 days, has made a major change for the Pink Ball Test to be played in Adelaide. He has given place to all-rounder Beau Webster in the team. In view of Mitchell Marsh's injury, this Tasmania player has been included in the team for the Adelaide Test. Beau Webster has been included in the team due to his recent form and performance in the match against India A.

Webster's first class record

Beau Webster has scored 5297 runs in first class cricket with 12 centuries. During this period his batting average has been more than 37. With the ball, he has taken 148 wickets in his name in first class cricket. Webster also performed brilliantly in the practice match played against India A. In 4 innings of 2 matches, he scored more than 150 runs with one half-century and took 7 wickets.

Rewarded for shining in Tasmania's win

Beau Webster also performed brilliantly in the match against New South Wales from 24 November. In this match, he played an important role with both ball and bat in Tasmania's 55-run victory. Webster scored 110 runs with the bat in both the innings combined. He took 5 wickets with the same ball. Considering his current performance, the Australian team management has decided to include him in the team as an alternative to Marsh.

Marsh gets injured, Webster gets a chance

India had defeated Australia by a huge margin of 295 runs in the Perth Test. Mitchell Marsh had returned from injury in that match. But once again his injuries have surfaced, due to which Webster has been included in the team as a backup. The coach of the Australian team says that he is constantly keeping an eye on Marsh's injury.

The second Test between India and Australia is to be played in Adelaide from 6 to 10 December. This will be a day-night test, in which the match will be played with pink ball.
