A green pitch has been prepared for the first Test and due to rain the pitch remained under cover for a long time, which may cause further problems for the batsmen. In such a situation, bowlers will be seen playing an important role. Know about Australia’s possible playing 11- Nathan McSweeney can be seen opening with Usman Khawaja in the first Test match against India. He scored 166 runs in 4 innings at an average of 55 in the unofficial test match against India A. McSweeney may get a chance to debut during the Perth Test. Australia’s middle order is strong with Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh. The fast bowling unit looks good with captain Pat Cummins, Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Marsh. If needed, the team can use Marnus Labuschagne as the fifth fast bowler. Whereas, if we talk about spin, Nathan Lyon will play an important role. Australia’s playing 11: Usman Khawaja, Nathan McSweeney, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Marsh, Pat Cummins (c), Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Nathan Lyon.
