Inglis close to becoming David Warner's replacement

David Warner has recently announced his retirement from international cricket, and Australia needs a strong opener in his place. Australian team's chief selector George Bailey has indicated that Inglis can make his Test debut as an opener in this series against India. Bailey praised Inglis' current form and said that his batting style and experience make him suitable for this role. The first match of the trophy will be held in Perth, and Inglis' aggressive play on the pitch there can cause trouble for the Indian bowlers.
