Pacer ruled out as Australia add duo to squad for India Test

Australia have called up uncapped pair Rachel Trenaman and Maitlan Brown to their squad for this month's one-off Test against India in Perth.

The duo are added to a 13-player squad for the Test that commences at the WACA Ground on March 6 and could be in contention to make their debut with veteran all-rounder Ellyse Perry still in doubt for the four-day contest.

Perry is battling a quad issue and will play purely as a batter in Perth should she recover in time, while key pacer Kim Garth has already been ruled out of the match with an injury problem of her own.

Skipper Sophie Molineux will also miss the match with a back concern, meaning Alyssa Healy will once again captain the side in what will be her last international appearance prior to retirement.

Healy scored a superb 158 in the third and final ODI against India in Hobart on Sunday to ensure the Aussies opened up an insurmountable 8-4 advantage in the multi-format series and will lead the side once again in Perth with Molineux sidelined.
