Australia Pick 'Impressive' Jake Weatherald In First Ashes Test Squad

By AFP News November 05, 2025 • 08:53 AM View: 738

Chief selector George Bailey hailed "impressive" uncapped opener Jake Weatherald as having all the right attributes after he was named Wednesday in Australia's squad for the first Ashes Test.

In-form batsman Marnus Labuschagne was recalled, but young opener Sam Konstas was dropped from the 15-man squad that will be captained by Steve Smith in the injury-enforced absence of Pat Cummins.
