Interesting seeing Will Young open for NZ. Blundell and Latham are openers, Young is not.
5 (11)

Where does he normally bat in domestic cricket ?

Hard to take Williamson , Taylor or Nicholls spot though.

They probably have a few batsmen waiting for Taylor to retire to get a opportunity.

Yes, tough decision, normally a #3. He has opened, so I guess if he made 100, I'd be calling it brilliant! 😃

Mitch Swepson is a late addition into the Australian camp, flown-in last night as cover for Ashton Agar - who is struggling with a calf strain.

Australia has won the toss in Canberra, with Aaron Finch electing to bowl first !

Australia XI: Aaron Finch (c), D'Arcy Short, Matthew Wade (wk), Steve Smith, Moises Henriques, Glenn Maxwell, Sean Abbott, Mitch Starc, Mitch Swepson, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood

India XI: Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul (wk), Virat Kohli (c), Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Shami, Thangarasu Natarajan

SA vs England T20 postponed due to a Proteas player testing positive.

Has anyone seen if the XI for the first Australia A game has been confirmed ?

I suspect the 9 Test Squad members would be given priority but now not sure with Abbott & Swepson playing in the T20I.
