4th Test: Marcus Harris to replace injured Will Pucovski

Brisbane, Jan 14 : Rookie opener Will Pucovski, who injured his shoulder in the third Test, has been ruled out of the series decider against India beginning Friday at The Gabba. Left-handed batsman Marcus Harris has been called in as his replacement.
Pucovski, who made his debut last week, injured his right shoulder while fielding on the final day of the drawn Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. On Thursday morning, he failed a fitness test.
After training, Australia captain Tim Paine confirmed that Harris will partner David Warner at the top of the order.
“He (Pucovski) tried to train this morning and didn’t quite come up,” Paine said as per cricket.com.au.
“He’ll have a bit of work to do with our medicos to see where he goes from here, but he’s obviously missing this Test match and Marcus Harris will replace him,” he added.
Harris has not played Test cricket since the Ashes in 2019 where he was called in midway through the series, replacing Cameron Bancroft and scored 58 runs in six innings.
