Australia Test Squad For South Africa Tour

Melbourne: The uncapped trio of Phillip Hughes, Bryce McGain and Marcus North have been added to an already green Australian line-up for the three-Test tour of South Africa, as selectors attempt to restructure the team for the future and contend with an horrific injury toll.

Hughes will likely be joined by McGain as a fellow debutant in Australia's starting XI for the first Test in Johannesburg. At 36, McGain would become Australia's oldest Test debutant since Bob Holland in 1984.

Squad: Ricky Ponting (c), Phillip Hughes, Simon Katich, Michael Clarke, Michael Hussey, Marcus North, Andrew McDonald, Brad Haddin (wk), Mitchell Johnson, Nathan Hauritz, Peter Siddle, Doug Bollinger, Bryce McGain, Ben Hilfenhaus.
