The Klerksdorp-born Australian batter, Marnus Labuschagne, is tipped to open the batting during the upcoming World Test Championship final against South Africa in London.
The Baggy Greens are weighing up their options to see who will partner Usman Khawaja to face the Proteas' pace attack up front.
The 30-year-old Labuschagne has joined English county side Glamorgan for a few games in preparation for the WTC final.
However, over the weekend, he was dismissed for a duck and 4 in their 8-wicket win over Northamptonshire in Cardiff.
The big WTC final at Lord’s is set to be played from 11 to 15 June.
