The Brisbane Test is to be played from December 14, for which Australia has announced the playing eleven. There is a change in the Australian team. This change has happened due to the return of Josh Hazlewood to the team. Hazlewood could not play the second test due to injury. But, now Australian team captain Pat Cummins has confirmed his play in the third Test to be held at Gabba. Cummins announced his playing eleven a day before the Test match.

Hazlewood in, Boland out

After Hazlewood's return to the Australian team, Scott Boland had to be left out of the team.

Boland had replaced Josh Hazlewood in the second Test played in Adelaide, who could not play due to side strain. But, now Hazlewood has passed his fitness test and that is why Cummins also announced his playing in Gabba.

This has been the performance of Hazlewood and Boland in the series.

Scott Boland took 5 wickets in the Adelaide Test. He took 2 wickets against India in the first innings of the Test played with pink ball. Whereas in the second innings he dismissed 3 Indian batsmen. Before the injury, Hazlewood had played the first Test of the series in Perth, in which he also took 5 wickets.

He took 4 wickets in the first innings and 1 wicket in the second innings.
