There is some good news for the injury-hit Australian cricket team as opener Shaun Marsh is likely to be fit for the upcoming Test series against India and might even play the two warm-up matches before that.
Marsh, recuperating from a back injury, is likely to play against the Indians in one of their two warm-up matches in Canberra to get some match fitness before the opening Test in here from December 26.
The first is a two-day match beginning on December 15, before a three-day game starting December 19.
Australia's physiotherapist Alex Kountouris said the opener's fitness would be put to test during the practice games.
