Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25: Australia To Add Uncapped Beau Webster To Squad For Pink-Ball Test

Australia are set to add uncapped fast-bowling all-rounder Beau Webster into their squad for the second Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test, to be played with the pink ball in Adelaide, starting on December 6. A report by News Corp on Wednesday said Webster has been picked up as an injury cover for fellow all-rounder Mitchell Marsh, who has pulled up "sore" following the series opener, where Australia suffered a 295-run loss to India inside four days at Perth Stadium. Though there's a ten-day gap between first and second Tests, if Marsh fails to recover in time for the Adelaide game, after bowling more than ten overs in Perth, then Webster has a chance to become Australia's 468th men's Test cricketer.

Former Australian cricket team star Tom Moody was left a bit surprised by Sunrisers Hyderabad paying Rs 11.25 Crore to buy Ishan Kishan in the IPL 2025 Auction. The wicket-keeper batter, who was released by Mumbai Indians, was left out of the BCCI central contracts and has not played for India in the past year.

Moody said that with SRH already having Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma as a set opening duo, Kishan's addition was 'flawed' in his opinion.
