Aussies pick spinner for T20 debut in West Indies

Spinner Matt Kuhnemann will make his Australian T20 debut in game two of the five-match series against West Indies.

The Australians will bowl first after captain Mitch Marsh won the toss at Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica.

Left-arm tweaker Kuhnemann has been summoned to replace paceman Sean Abbott.

And batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk has also been dropped, with middle-order blaster Tim David returning from a hamstring injury.

West Indies named the same side that lost the series-opener by three wickets at the same venue.

The series continues in St Kitts on Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday (all times AEDT).

Teams:

Australia: Mitch Marsh (capt), Josh Inglis, Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Tim David, Mitch Owen, Cooper Connolly, Ben Dwarshuis, Nathan Ellis, Adam Zampa, Matt Kuhnemann.

West Indies: Shai Hope (capt), Roston Chase, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Gudakesh Motie, Rovman Powell, Andre Russell, Sherfane Rutherford.
