Australia's Test contenders - How they fared on Day 1

Out for 4, falling in identical fashion to the second innings of the Hobart Test, tickling a catch down the leg side.

Scored 106 against South Australia, and will be a certain starter for the Adelaide Test.

Was concussed by a bouncer to the helmet, and retired hurt on 16. Will take no further part in the Shield game. Also struggling for form, and likely to be axed from the Test side.

David Warner, Steven Smith, Peter Nevill and Callum Ferguson are yet to bat in this Shield round.

Finished the day unbeaten on 110 against New South Wales, and could be a straight swap for Voges in the Test squad.

Scored 108 against South Australia in a typical opener's innings - slow and cautious at first, and more expansive later. Could be discussed if Burns is to be dropped.

Batted throughout the day against New South Wales to finish on 134. Another opener who may feature in discussions.

Caught behind for 2. Would be a leading contender for the opening position but for a poor start to the Shield season, with scores of 20, 17, 22, 6 and 2.

Dropped at slip off Steve O'Keefe on 11, caught in exactly the same spot the very next ball.

Left out of Western Australia's XI due to a shoulder injury, which will not help his chances of a recall after being dropped for the Hobart Test.

Other hopefuls such as Kurtis Patterson, Travis Head, Nic Maddinson and Jake Lehmann are yet to bat in this Shield round.

The only one of Australia's Test bowlers to be playing in this Shield round. Finished the day with 0 for 88 off 27 overs against Victoria.

Picked up the wicket of Stoinis, but no others against Victoria. Finished with 1 for 65 from 25 overs.

Went wicketless against Queensland in Brisbane, where he bowled 25 overs and took 0 for 65.

Took 2 for 60 from 18 overs against Western Australia. Dismissed the prolific Michael Klinger for 5.

Was left out of Western Australia's XI due to a calf strain.
