Antigua, March 31: Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne and wicketkeeper Ian Healy are facing the axe for the fourth and final Test against West Indies here on Saturday.

Captain Steve Waugh hinted today that changes would be made. “It’s always tough when the top players are out of a bit of form. But the bottomline is we’ve got to pick a side to win the next Test match and if either of those guys (Healy and Warne) aren’t in the best eleven, then they won’t be there.”National selector Allan Border said: “the ploy to play two leggies hasn’t really worked.”
