Inverarity also hinted at all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, the only million-dollar buy at this year's IPL players' auction, getting a Test debut in Chennai.

"The wicket for the Test match is already prepared. We could've played on it today, we could have played on it yesterday or the day before," Inverarity said. "There is not one blade of grass, so you'd suggest it is a wicket for spinners. But with our Australian team I think the strength lies more with the pace bowlers than with the spinners. We've got the option of playing two pace bowlers and two spinners, but it'd more likely that we'd go in with three pace bowlers and one spinner, plus some spin support. I don't think it's clouded. We know what we're going to do. "The Indian players, of course, are very good players of spin. Yesterday, our spinners didn't bowl well and the Indian batsmen took heavy toll of them, but we're fairly clear in regards what we're going to do in terms of spin bowling in the first Test match," he added.
