By IANS News December 03, 2025 • 12:00 PM View: 239

Sydney Morning Herald: Wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis is likely to come in for injured Usman Khawaja and is poised to make his maiden Test appearance in Australia when the day-night Test begins at the Gabba on Thursday.

Inglis is expected to slot into the middle order, effectively taking over the position vacated by Travis Head, who will shift to an opening role alongside Jake Weatherald, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.

Acting skipper Steve Smith said the final XI would be confirmed only after the team gets a look at the pitch on Wednesday afternoon.
