Green Named In Australia's Test Squad For West Indies Series; Renshaw Recalled

By IANS News January 10, 2024 • 10:26 AM View: 869

Matthew Renshaw We: All-rounder Cameron Green will play in the first Test of a two-match series against West Indies as Australia named a 13-player squad for two-match series, beginning on January 17.

Matt Renshaw, who Warner has tipped as a potential successor, edged out fellow Test-capped openers Marcus Harris and Cameron Bancroft to be named in Test squad.

But the 27-year-old Renshaw will still have to bide his time on the periphery, with national selection panel chair George Bailey confirming allrounder Green's return to Australia's starting XI.
