Sydney, Dec 12 (UNI) Victoria's Marcus Harris was on Saturday added to Australia's squad for the first Test against India in Adelaide following a spate of injuries in the practice games for the Australian batsmen, and the eventual ruling out of David Warner and Will Pucovski.
David Warner had already been ruled out of the squad after he suffered a groin injury in the one-day series, while Will Pucovski sustained a concussion while batting for Australia A in the first tour match against India at Drummoyne Oval last week.
Harris, who has played nine Tests for Australia has been in fine form this summer, posting 239 against South Australia in his first innings of this season's Marsh Sheffield Shield as part of the highest-ever Shield stand of 486 alongside Pucovski.
