Clark in for McGrath

Stuart Clark is set to make his One Day International debut for Australia, as Glenn McGrath will be rested for the second match of the Super Series. McGrath experienced tightness in the legs after the first game, and will be rested as a precaution.

Clark, 30, has taken 95 wickets in his List-A career, and will be the 153rd player to represent Australia in limited overs internationals.

For the World XI, Chris Gayle has been drafted into the squad in place of Shahid Afridi.
