Boland, who was already in the team, played his final ten Test matches at Headingley in July 2023 against England.
Mitchell Marsh, an all-rounder, is also under suspicion because, like Hazlewood, he pulled up sore after their thumping in Perth.
He was covered by Beau Webster, who was summoned into the squad on Thursday.
Josh Hazlewood, the pace leader for Australia, was disqualified from Saturday’s second Test match against India in Adelaide.
Seamers Sean Abbott and Brendon Doggett were joined to the Australian side for the second Test match against India in Adelaide on Saturday, replacing speed leader Josh Hazlewood. Cricket Australia defined the right-armer’s condition as “a low-grade left side injury.” He claimed five wickets in Australia’s 295-run first Test loss in Perth. “Hazlewood will remain with the group in Adelaide to prepare for the remainder of the series,” said CA. Hazelwood’s absence is probably going to allow Scott Boland to play in the day-night Test that begins on Friday, even though Abbott and Doggett, who are uncapped, were drafted in.
