NSW quick Josh Hazlewood will make his Test debut in a new-look Australian pace attack in the second Test against India on a bouncy Brisbane deck starting on Wednesday.
New skipper Steve Smith has confirmed that Hazlewood will receive his first baggy green, while left-arm speedster Mitchell Starc has earned a recall after Peter Siddle and the injured Ryan Harris have been overlooked.
Smith has elevated himself up the batting order to No.4, replacing injured captain Michael Clarke.
Shaun Marsh will now bat at No.5 ahead of his brother Mitchell.
Smith is confident Harris will overcome a quad strain to be available for the third Test.
He also hopes that Siddle can regain form after being dropped for his underwhelming display in Adelaide.
