We wanted a left-armer to go away from all of their right-handers.&quot;&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;(Agar has) made Shield hundreds and obviously batted really well on his Test debut. He&#39;s certainly got the talent to be a batting all-rounder or a spinning all-rounder,&quot; the former Aussie all-rounder said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Australia&#39;s Third Test squad: Steve Smith (Captain), David Warner (vc), Ashton Agar, Jackson Bird, Hilton Cartwright, Peter Handscomb, Josh Hazlewood, Usman Khawaja, Nathan Lyon, Steve O&#39;Keefe, Matthew Renshaw, Mitchell Starc, Matthew Wade (wk)<\/p>\r\n",
