Difficult to get a chance in playing eleven
Even though Brendan Doggett and Sean Abbott have been included in the Australian team for the second test, it is difficult for both of them to play in the playing eleven. Because Australia already has Scott Boland. Mitchell Starc will be seen leading the fast bowling attack for Australia. Captain Pat Cummins is present in the team to support him.
