David Warner has been named in Australia's squad for the start of the Ashes, while Marcus Harris and Matt Renshaw have also been listed as batting options.
abc.net.au/news/australia-ashes-test-squad-david-warner/102239758David Warner has won the right to go on one final Ashes tour, with selectors opting to take him, Marcus Harris and Matt Renshaw all to England.
But he is now likely to be given one final chance to prolong his stay at the top of the order during the Ashes campaign, after a dismal showing in England in 2019. Selectors on Wednesday chose to take both Harris and Renshaw in the initial squad as back-up batters, with both at their best at the top of the order.
Australia have also opted for only four specialist quicks, with Scott Boland picked alongside Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood.
