The series will be an important factor in determining the finalists of the World Test Championship. On Wednesday, Cricket Australia announced an 18-member squad for the four-match series. While left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc will not join the squad until after the first Test, all-rounder Cameron Green has been named in the squad as he is expected to make a full recovery from his broken finger.

The series will also see veteran batter Peter Handscomb making a comeback. Meanwhile, uncapped Victoria off-spinner Todd Murphy was also added to the squad. Todd will join the likes of Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Swepson and Ashton Agar in the spin department.

While Josh Hazlewood retained his place in the squad after his impressive return from injury, captain Pat Cummins, Scott Borland and uncapped Lance Morris make up for the pace attack.

With the series being held in India, the visiting Australian side announced their squad keeping their bowling options wide open. In the team announced on Wednesday, Australia named four spinners and six quicks for the Test series.

In a press release, chief selector George Bailey said, “Ashton Agar continues to impress following his comeback in Sydney and we believe left-arm finger spin will play an important role in Indian conditions.”

Having named Murphy in the squad, Bailey said, “Toddy Murphy has progressed quickly having impressed in domestic cricket and recently with Australia A. With those performances Todd has emerged as a strong spin option.”
