Ryan Harris has been named as the 12th man as the Aussies settled for the same playing XI that figured in the Melbourne Test. Off Spinner Nathan Lyon has retained his place as the Team Management decided not to go for an all-out four-men pace attack. Instead it will be the same pace trio of Pattinson, Hilfenhaus and Siddle with Nathan Lyon filling up some overs with his off breaks for tomorrow's Second Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

- Ed Cowan
- David Warner
- Shaun Marsh
- Ricky Ponting
- Michael Clarke (Captain)
