Australia v South Africa, 2nd Test

Hauritz Replaces Krejza In Aussie Squad For Boxing Day Test

Melbourne: Struggling spinner Jason Krejza was on Monday replaced by Nathan Hauritz in the 13-member Australian squad for the second Test against South Africa starting on December 26 at Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Australia's national selection panel chairman Andrew Hilditch said Krejza's axing was prompted by his below-par display in the opening Test in Perth, which Australia lost by six wickets after the South Africans chased down a record 414 target. Krejza took just one wicket, conceding 204 runs in the match.

Squad: Ricky Ponting (c), Michael Clarke (vc), Brad Haddin, Nathan Hauritz, Matthew Hayden, Ben Hilfenhaus, Michael Hussey, Mitchell Johnson, Simon Katich, Brett Lee, Peter Siddle, Andrew Symonds, Shane Watson.
