Boland pushes his case as race for third pacer's slot heats up

Less than a week before the start of the World Test Championship (WTC) final against South Africa, defending champions Australia face a selection headache with Scott Boland in a head-to-head battle with IPL-winning seamer Josh Hazelwood for one fast bowling spot in the Playing XI.
Boland was one of Australia's best bowlers when they won their first World Test Championship mace at The Oval in 2023, and was also instrumental in his side's progress to the Ultimate Test at Lord's after an impressive show during the Border-Gavaskar series against India earlier this year.
