Scott Boland comeback headlines Australia’s strategy for the third Test against West Indies at Sabina Park, Jamaica (July 12–16). In a bold selection move, Australia dropped spinner Nathan Lyon to go with a full pace attack for the day–night pink-ball Test. Boland joins Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood in a fast-bowling unit expected to dominate under lights on a seam-friendly surface.
This Scott Boland comeback is backed by his impressive form, including a 10-wicket haul in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Renowned for his accuracy and consistency, Boland is seen as a key figure in Australia’s bowling attack. Captain Pat Cummins praised his fitness and reliability, highlighting him as the ideal option for the pink-ball format. With Australia leading the series 2–0, Boland’s role could be crucial in securing a clean sweep and maintaining dominance in Test cricket.
