Australiais the pacesetter at the forefront Josh Hazlewood was ruled out of the second Test against India due to a side strain.
cricket Australia have added two uncapped bowlers, Sean Abbott and Brendan Doggett, to the squad for the day-night pink-ball Test at the Adelaide Oval starting December 6.
Hazlewood's unavailability is a major setback for the hosts, who are 1-0 down in the five-match series after a 295-run defeat in the first Test in Perth.

He scored an impressive 4 for 29 in the first innings in Perth and led the Australian attack which bowled India out for 150. In the second inning, Hazlewood's numbers were 1 for 28.
Hazlewood was the chief architect of India's embarrassing 36-run haul on their last tour of Australia. The right arm pacer scored 5 out of 8 in this day-night test.
His absence paves the way for Scott Boland to return to the Test XI for Australia after more than a year. Boland is also part of the Prime Minister's XI that will face India in a two-day pink-ball practice match at the Manuka Oval in Canberra starting today (November 30).
