Brisbane, Nov 30: When he leads Australia into a test series on home soil for the first time, Michael Clarke will be dealing with a new coach and at least three teammates on debut against a New Zealand squad growing ever more confident of ending a long drought for visiting teams at the Gabba.
No longer an assembly of the Who's Who of international cricket, Australia's team heads into its summer with a public wondering who some of them are.
The ramifications of a Cricket Australia overhaul will start becoming apparent Thursday when the two-test series commences against a New Zealand squad also in the midst of rebuilding. New Zealand hasn't won a test on Australian soil since 1985. The Australians are unbeaten at the Gabba since '88. Yet there's little between the teams.
