WA fast bowler Jhye Richardson will don the baggy green tomorrow, but young gun Will Pucovski has surprisingly missed out on Test selection for the match against Sri Lanka at the Gabba.

Australian selectors overlooked Pucovski, 20, in favour of Queensland opener Joe Burns and Kurtis Patterson, who earned his spot on the back of his performance in the tour match at the weekend.

Richardson was preferred to veteran pace bowler Peter Siddle, who has been named 12th man.

The 22-year-old has taken 49 wickets in 11 first-class matches, including 8-47 for WA against NSW in November.

He’s set to be part of an aggressive attack in Brisbane, as forecast on Wednesday by skipper Tim Paine.

Paine hinted Australia was set to unleash a bouncer barrage on a lively Gabba deck to correct a worrying stat for their speedsters.

Australia’s attack have come under fire from the likes of former fast bowling great Jeff Thomson after they did not earn one LBW decision in their 2-1 Test series loss to India.

While Paine admitted his quicks needed to be more accurate at the stumps, he believed a bit of chin music beforehand may be required to successfully spring an LBW trap against Sri Lanka in Brisbane.

“Clearly we need to be hitting the stumps a little bit more than we were - there’s no doubt about that and that’s been spoken about,” Paine said.

“(But) we also felt we didn’t use our bouncer as much as we would have liked in that series.

“Sometimes when you’re using your bouncer a couple of times an over, when you do pitch up it’s a bit more effective.

“The majority of the time we would like to be hitting the top of the stumps a bit more but there is also a way of setting that up.”
