The Optus Stadium here is all set for a Test debut on Friday when it hosts Game Two of the 2018-19 Border-Gavaskar Trophy. And there won't be any shortage of pace, according to former Aussie pacer Mitchell Johnson.

"There will be a lot of pace and bounce. The fast bowlers from both teams will have a gala time on this strip which I reckon is the fastest pitch in Australia," said Johnson who played one Big Bash game for Perth Scorchers against Hobart Hurricanes last February at the new ground. Johnson revealed that the new stadium is impressive and can be sighted from the old Western Australia Cricket Association (WACA) ground which is nearby.
