Nathan has displayed qualities that will prepare him for Tests. His recent records in domestic cricket are also excellent. His performance for South Australia and Australia A is also in his favor. Similarly, Josh Inglis is in great form in the Sheffield Shield competition. He deserves a place in the Test team. On the other hand, whenever Scott gets a chance in the Test team, he performs brilliantly. He has become an important member of the team.
