Australia coach Justin Langer hinted on Wednesday that Joe Burns will continue as opening partner for David Warner in the test series against India despite growing calls for Will Pucovski to replace him at the top of the order.
Pucovski vaulted into the test squad with successive double centuries in first class cricket to start the season, while Burns, who has re-established his opening partnership with the pugnacious Warner, struggled.Langer, however, said Pucovski might need to bide his time during Australia's summer."When the opportunity comes, he's ready to play test cricket. The opportunity hopefully will come for him at some point, whether it's this series or a series to come.
"Someone like Will, who's opening the batting for Victoria and has batted three, it gives him the flexibility to bat anywhere."
