'Off his foot': Ashton Turner falls to one of the unluckiest caught and bowled dismissals
The Aussie's dismissal summed up Lucknow's night, losing to Kolkata Knight Riders by 98 runs.
Australia paceman James Pattinson has been recalled for the second trans-Tasman Test in Christchurch.
Skipper Steve Smith revealed his side on Friday, confirming Pattinson will take injured veteran Peter Siddle’s place in the XI
“Patto obviously wasn’t right for that first Test,” Smith said. “He’s been working hard since.
“He’s bowled a lot in the nets and we’re all confident he’ll get through this next Test match, hopefully he can have a big impact for us.”
The tourists are otherwise unchanged as they seek to reclaim the No.1 Test ranking.
Australia will top the International Cricket Council’s rankings if they win or draw the contest at Hagley Oval that starts on Saturday.
Smith noted the pitch was “quite green and wet” on Friday morning.
Australia XI: Joe Burns, David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith (capt), Adam Voges, Mitch Marsh, Peter Nevill, James Pattinson, Josh Hazlewood, Nathan Lyon, Jackson Bird.
