Australia have added uncapped Tasmania all-rounder Beau Webster to their squad for the second Test against India in Adelaide.

The 30-year-old, who was player of the year in the Sheffield Shield last season, will join the national team for the match which starts on 6 December.

Webster averages 38 with the bat in first-class cricket and 37 with the ball.

He will provide cover for Mitchell Marsh, who is struggling for fitness following Australia’s defeat in the first Test in Perth.

The Tasmanian, who bowls mostly seam but can also deliver off-spin, joins an otherwise unchanged squad as the home side look to square the five-match series.

He scored 61 and 49 batting for Tasmania against New South Wales this week, taking five wickets with the ball.

Earlier this month he scored 145 runs in two matches against India A, along with taking seven wickets at an average of 19.57.
