All-rounder Daniel Christian’s will have to wait more for accomplishing a baggy green as Australia have decided to maintain the same squad for second and final Test against New Zealand in Hobart which crushed the tourists by nine wickets in the previous clash in Brisbane earlier this week, skipper Michael Clark confirmed on Thursday, a day before the commencement of series-decider.
The inclusion of 28-year-old Christian, who was the leading run-scorer for New South Wales in this summer’s Sheffield Shield, in squad on the eve of victory in first Test was rousting the possibility that he could replace opener Phillip Hughes, who struggled in the recent-past and scored 9, 9, 88, 11, 10 and 7 in his last six innings. His axing was meant that Usman Khawaja will move into the top-order.
