The home team won the match against the visitors in Perth on Sunday by a margin of 360 runs within four days. Off-spinner Nathan Lyon achieved his 500th wicket during the game. Opener David Warner scored 164 runs, securing his spot for the upcoming Boxing Day Test, which is likely to be his last series. Despite facing criticism and doubts about his performance, Warner’s determined innings earned him a place in the next match. The 37-year-old batsman has hinted that the third Test in Sydney will be his farewell. With key bowlers Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood injury-free, Morris was released to play in the Big Bash League. Scott Boland is the first choice for a replacement if needed.
“Lance has been released for the Melbourne match but will stay prepared for Test cricket as he remains firmly in our plans for the summer, should an opportunity arise,” said chief selector George Bailey.
“Otherwise, the squad remains unchanged following the strong performance in Perth.”
