Mitchell Marsh plays, Boland replaces Hazlewood as Pat Cummins confirms Playing XI for 2nd BGT Test

The second Check between Australia and India will get underway at Adelaide Oval from December 6.

Australia skipper Pat Cummins has revealed his playing XI for the much-awaited second Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test against India. Josh Hazlwood, who was expected to miss due to a niggle, has been forced to sit out. This means Scott Boland will make his Test return, who last played in the 3rd Ashes Test in Leeds in 2023. Meanwhile, Mitchell Marsh has remained in the lineup despite him getting a potential injury after “over-bowling” in the BGT opener.
