BEAU Casson will become the 401st player to wear the Baggy Green cap for Australia, when he makes his debut in the third and final Test against West Indies.
The Australians have ignored local knowledge that the Kensington Oval pitch - relaid for last year's World Cup - will be livelier than the surfaces for the first two Tests of the series in Jamaica and Antigua.
They have resisted temptation to pick four frontline fast bowlers and have chosen to stick their long-held policy of a balanced attack which will include Casson.
