Australia have named their squad for the second Test against West Indies in Brisbane, with captain Pat Cummins ruled out due to a lingering lower-back injury. Cummins, who has not played since suffering the injury four months ago, will travel with the team but aims to return for the third Test in Adelaide on December 17. Steve Smith will continue as captain, while fast bowler Josh Hazlewood also remains sidelined with a hamstring problem. Brendon Doggett is expected to open the bowling alongside Mitchell Starc and Scott Boland. Usman Khawaja has been retained in the squad despite recent poor form and back pain that kept him from batting in the second innings of the Perth Test. If Khawaja is dropped, all-rounder Beau Webster could be included to strengthen the bowling lineup. The day-night Test at the Gabba begins on December 4, with Australia looking to build on their emphatic win in the first Test, which ended in just one and a half days.
