Test squad David Warner, Shaun Marsh, Usman Khawaja, Steven Smith (capt), Adam Voges, Mitchell Marsh, Peter Nevill (wk), Mitchell Starc, Peter Siddle, Joe Mennie, Josh Hazlewood, Nathan Lyon,
"Joe bowls a great length at a lively pace and his form in first-class cricket has been terrific in the last 12 months," Marsh said. "He also impressed us during the recent Australia A Series in Queensland.
"He was the highest wicket-taker in the Sheffield Shield last season and is very handy with the bat."
Shaun Marsh was said to have edged his way past Burns by dint of hundreds in his past two Test matches, most recently the third Test against Sri Lanka in Colombo, and also a strong record in both Perth and Hobart.
"Both Shaun and Joe played very well in the Sheffield Shield round," Rod Marsh said, "but Shaun is coming off back-to-back hundreds in Test matches and has performed very well in Perth and Hobart so we have opted to go with him."
