Test veteran Justin Langer was on Thursday named to lead the Prime Minister's XI team against the touring West Indies in Canberra in a one-day cricket match on December 2.
Langer, who was forced out of the first Test against the West Indies with a broken rib, will lead a team of largely up-and-coming cricketers against Shivnarine Chanderpaul's tourists at Manuka Oval.
It will be the eighth time the Prime Minister's XI will play the West Indies, with the home team's record at four wins, one loss, one draw and one tie.
THE PM XI TEAM: Justin Langer (captain), Travis Birt, Doug Bollinger, Adam Crosthwaite, David Dawson, Brett Dorey, Callum Ferguson, Phil Jaques, Mitchell Johnson, Chris Simpson, Adam Voges. Michael Shaw (12th man and super sub).
