Australia Not Looking To Place Josh Inglis At Top Order, Says Chief Selector Bailey
Regular T20I: Australia chief selector George Bailey confirmed that the team is not looking at Josh Inglis for the opening role in the upcoming five-Test home series against India starting on November 22.
The 29-year-old has now scored four tons in his past seven Shield matches, backing up an impressive run in white-ball cricket for Australia too. Bailey believes that Inglis will be picked as a pure batter in the Test squad when there will be a place available in the future.
"I've spoken to Josh on this. Not in the short term, I don't think that he's someone that we would be looking to place at the top of the order," Bailey told reporters on Monday.
