As Mitchell Starc, who is currently recovering from tendon damage to his left middle finger, won't join the squad until after the first Test, Lance Morris, who was a member of Australia's red-ball squad in the home series, keeps his spot and could possibly make his Test debut in Nagpur's opening match.
