Canberra, Dec 1 Australia will be forced to make some changes in their squad for the third ODI against India on Wednesday after opener David Warner limped off the field due to a groin injury. Australia head coach Justin Langer said he does not expect star opener, David Warner, to be fit and available for the first Test against India on December 17. Warner faces a battle to be fit for the India Test series after Cricket Australia said he will miss the last one-day international and the three-match Twenty20 series next month. But Australia skipper Aaron Finch doesn’t seem too perturbed about it and said that their team have got guys who can step up in Warner’s absence. The skipper said that they have not yet selected who will replace Warner on Wednesday but cited wicket-keeper batsman Alex Carey, Marnus Labuschagne, and Matthew Wade as the possible options the hosts can try out. “We have not picked a team yet, but we have got a few options. Whether we go Wadey in the side or Marnus comes up.
