Australia opener Marcus Harris to play in third Ashes Test: Justin Langer

The Hindu  

Australia will retain struggling opener Marcus Harris for the third Ashes Test and is confident that pacer Mitchell Starc will recover from a rib problem in time to bowl at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, coach Justin Langer said on Thursday. READ : Ashes 2021: Australia adds pacer Boland to squad for Melbourne test Langer, an opener who played 105 Tests for Australia, endured similar periods where his position was in question and said it was important to support players. "It's a tough gig, opening in Test cricket, but we're really confident Marcus has got what it takes to be a successful Australian opening batsman." READ : New Zealand drops history man Ajaz Patel for Bangladesh Test series Michael Neser and Jhye Richardson replaced the duo in Adelaide, while uncapped pacer Scott Boland was brought into the squad as cover on Tuesday, and Langer said he was undecided on the make-up of the bowling attack for Melbourne.
