Brisbane, February 2:: With captain Ricky Ponting and opener Matthew Hayden looking doubtful for Sunday’s match, Australia on Saturday added Adam Voges, along with Ashley Noffke, to the squad for the tri-series opener against India.

Australian pacer Stuart Clark will also miss Sunday’s match due to "family reasons" and Noffke will take his place in the squad, Cricket Australia (CA) said in a statement.

"It is anticipated Clark will rejoin the squad when it travels to Sydney next week," it said.

Voges, on the other hand, will act as a 'cover' batsman should Ponting or Hayden be ruled unfit prior to the match.

Ponting is struggling with a stiff back, while Hayden's hamstring injury has created a cloud of doubt over his availability on Sunday.
