BGT 2024-25: Ian Healy Bats For Beau Webster's Debut In 2nd Test Against India
Ian Healy: Former Australia captain Ian Healy has advocated for uncapped all-rounder Beau Webster's debut in the upcoming pink-ball Test against India after being added to the hosts squad as potential cover for Mitch Marsh, who is managing an ankle issue.
Marsh had pulled up sore after bowling in the first Test in Perth which Australia lost by 295 runs to trail 1-0 in the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
The veteran has backed Webster to get a spot in the playing 11 ahead of fourth seamer Scott Boland. "I like that, but I don’t reckon standby, get him in. I don’t really like just adding him to the squad unless he’s going to play, drop the 12th man. You drop (Scott) Boland out … and add Beau Webster,” Healy said on SEN.
