Scott Boland retains Australia spot for Boxing Day Test vs South Africa

The Hindu  

Last year’s Boxing Day Test hero Scott Boland has retained his spot in Australia’s bowling attack and will line up at the Melbourne Cricket Ground for the second Test against South Africa beginning Monday. Captain Pat Cummins confirmed Sunday that Australia would stick with the same XI that beat the Proteas by six wickets in just two days in the first Test at the Gabba in Brisbane. Australia will be looking to secure its first Test series win against South Africa on home soil since 2005-06 by going 2-0 up at the MCG. South Africa captain Dean Elgar has confirmed at least one change to his side’s batting lineup but would not say who is in or out ahead of Monday’s toss at the MCG.
