Australia vs India: Sean Abbott and Brendan Doggett called up


Australia have called up uncapped duo Sean Abbott and Brendan Doggett for the second Test against India after seamer Josh Hazlewood was ruled out through injury.

Cricket Australia said Hazlewood will miss the day-night match at the Adelaide Oval with a “low grade left side injury”.

The 33-year-old, who has taken 278 wickets in 71 Tests, will remain with Australia’s squad in Adelaide to prepare for the remainder of the series.

Hazlewood was the pick of Australia’s bowlers in the first innings of the first Test when he finished with figures of 4-29 as India were dismissed for 150.

His place in the side for the second Test which starts on 6 December is widely expected to go to experienced seamer Scott Boland.

Abbott, 32, has taken 29 wickets in 26 one-day internationals and 26 wickets in 20 T20 internationals for Australia but has never played Test cricket.

He has taken 261 wickets in 87 first-class matches.

Doggett has never played for Australia but was an unused member of their squad for the 2018 Test series series against Pakistan.

The 30-year-old has taken 142 wickets in 40 first-class matches and took a career-best 6-15 for Australia A against India A in October.

Uncapped Tasmania all-rounder Beau Webster was named in the squad earlier this week as cover for Mitchell Marsh, who is struggling for fitness following Australia’s defeat in the first Test in Perth.
