Former Australia wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist is assured that David Warner will compete within the Sydney Test however shouldn’t be certain if Will Pucovski would make his debut within the third match in opposition to India, beginning January 7.
Australia have introduced again Warner and Pucovski, who have been recovering from a groin harm and concussion respectively, to the squad whereas dropping struggling opener Joe Burns for the remaining two Tests.

“He’s (Warner) very, very shut,” Gilchrist instructed ‘Fox Sports News’.
“The manner I take a look at it, he will need to have been fairly near Melbourne the best way he rushed down right here to verify he wasn’t caught by any border closures however he clearly did not rise up for Melbourne.
“But if he’s moving around a lot as we’ve seen … the Australians will have two days training here in Melbourne and then they head up to Sydney so I would expect he will be all right to go. It’s just a question of who will be at the other end with him,” Gilchrist added.
The 49-year-old feels Pucovski shouldn’t be a certain shot starter for the Sydney Test. “My pure intuition is that when you convey somebody right into a squad, a la Pucovski, you are most likely going to play him. It is probably not that sure.

“They might be bringing him into the squad so he can start getting higher-level practice and be fully engaged with the squad and the high-quality training that goes along with that,” Gilchrist added.
Pucovski was primed to open within the first Test however the 22-year-old suffered a concussion after being hit on the top in the course of the day-night apply match. “Since his blow to the head he hasn’t really had any other cricket to go and play, so perhaps they’re bringing him in more as cover should something else happen or if they want to play him in the fourth Test.”
Matthew Wade was elevated to the position of opener after the house facet was struck by accidents and Gilchrist reckons the 33-year-old has made a powerful case for himself within the first two Tests.
“Matt Wade has made a very robust case to remain on the prime of the order by the use of willpower and battle and that pure attribute that comes by means of in his recreation.
“He hasn’t capitalised on big runs but I think they’ll probably keep Wade at the top with Warner and leave that middle order as settled as they can,” Gilchrist stated.
By persevering with with Wade on the prime, Gilchrist feels the Travis Head has to ship down the order “That’ll put the highlight on Travis Head – he’ll need to ship large runs. I don’t suppose he’s fallen foul of the selectors simply but, I believe they’ll present religion in him for a minimum of yet another Test match.
“Then if changes need to be made, obviously they’ll have Pucovski there with a week of good solid training under his belt with the team. He’ll be there for Brisbane if they want to make a change,” Gilchrist stated.
