Australia is about to name its starting XI for the second Ashes Test against England at the Gabba, with Josh Inglis recalled to bat in the middle order, according to multiple outlets.
On Tuesday, Cricket Australia confirmed that veteran opener Usman Khawaja had been ruled out of the Brisbane Test due to a back injury, opening the door for Travis Head at the top of the order after his Perth century heroics.
Inglis, who made a ton in his very first Test innings in Sri Lanka, will take Head’s normal middle 0rder spot.
