Australia vs West Indies Preview: An injury to Pat Cummins has forced Australia to recall Scott Boland to the pace attack and return Steve Smith to the captaincy for the second Test against West Indies in Adelaide.
Cricket Australia released a statement saying Cummins hadn’t had enough time to recover from the upper leg injury he sustained in the 164-run win in Perth last week but he was expected to be fit for Australia’s first Test against South Africa in Brisbane next week.
Boland will join Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc in Australia’s pace attack for the second Test.
