Uncapped all-rounder Beau Webster was yesterday added to Australia’s squad for next week’s second Test against India in Adelaide as cover for Mitchell Marsh.
The 30- year- old is on standby after Marsh pulled up sore following their 295- run thrashing by the visitors in the first Test at Perth on Monday.
Webster has been in red-hot form for Tasmania in the domestic Sheffield Shield over the past 18 months, with his seam-bowling prowess and explosive batting catching the eye of selectors.
“ Webster will join the squad next week having been named the Sheffield Shield player of the year last summer and continuing that form this season,” Cricket Australia said.
