Hodge and Lewis given one-day call
YOUR E-MAIL ALERTSADELAIDE, Australia -- Australia have named a new-look squad, including one-day debutant Brad Hodge and uncapped paceman Michael Lewis, for the one-day series against New Zealand. The pair were included in a 13-man squad which is missing Shane Watson, James Hopes, Shaun Tait and Damian Martyn through injury. Veteran paceman Glenn McGrath was also rested because of the demands of a busy season. "We have seen what Hodge has done at Test level given the opportunity, and believe he will also do the job in the one-day side," said chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns. "Michael has also been a very solid performer. We have every confidence and faith that he will do a good job for us in the series and he thoroughly deserves his opportunity," he added. The series comprises three limited-overs matches in New Zealand next month. Australia squad: Ricky Ponting (captain), Adam Gilchrist, Nathan Bracken, Stuart Clark, Michael Clarke, Brad Hodge, Brad Hogg, Mike Hussey, Simon Katich, Michael Lewis, Brett Lee, Andrew Symonds, Cameron White.
