Australia captain Pat Cummins has confirmed that Beau Webster will make his Test debut in the fifth and final match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against India, starting Friday at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Webster is set to become Australia's 469th men’s Test player.
Webster replaces out-of-form allrounder Mitch Marsh, who has struggled to make an impact with both bat and ball throughout the series. Marsh has managed just 73 runs at an average of 10.42, prompting selectors to opt for Webster as a stronger batting option in the top six.
