Ponting makes bold call by predicting opener to debut against India

Sydney, Nov 2 (UNI) With the retirement of regular opener David Warner at the start of the year and the return of Steve Smith to his preferred position at No.4, there has been much speculation as to who should get the first opportunity against the new ball when India visit for the crucial ICC World Test Championship series later this month.
ICC Hall of Famer Ricky Ponting has revealed who he thinks should partner Usman Khawaja at the top of Australia's batting order during the upcoming Test series against India.
Ponting had said recently the Aussies may thrust teenage opener Sam Konstas into the fray and hand the Under 19 star a debut against India, but the Australia legend has changed his selection.
