    Australia will wait until the toss at midday to confirm the final spots in their playing 11 for the Boxing Day cricket test against England


    The last two berths in the home side's all out pace-attack in Melbourne will be filled Jhye Richardson, Brendan Doggett and Michael Neser

    Stand-in skipper Steve Smith says they're keeping an open mind about which two of the three will complete their side.



    Smith returns at number four in the batting order having recovered from the vertigo symptoms that saw him miss Australia's Ashes-sealing third test win in Adelaide.
