Colin Miller has been included in Victoria's team for the Pura Cup cricket match against Western Australia starting in Perth next week.

Miller, who has only played three matches for four wickets for the Bushrangers this season, was recalled to cover the loss of promising young leg spinner Cameron White, who is in New Zealand with the national under-19 side.

Miller, last season's Australian Test player of the year, has been included for the match starting on January 18 because of his ability to bowl both medium pace and off spin.

Batsman Simon Dart has been included in the 12 and is a chance to make his first-class debut after a couple of promising displays in the ING Cup.

Victorian selectors decided not to risk paceman Damien Fleming for the four-day match after just one one-day match back following hamstring troubles.

"The selectors felt that with the likely conditions in Perth at this time of the year it would have been a tough ask on Damien, given his limited preparation," chairman of selectors Shaun Graf said.

Fleming has been included in a separate ING Cup team to play the Warriors on Wednesday.

Teams:

Pura Cup: Paul Reiffel (capt), Matthew Elliott, Jason Arnberger, Darren Berry, Simon Dart, Brad Hodge, Mathew Inness, Michael Klinger, Michael Lewis, Jon Moss, Matthew Mott, Colin Miller (12th man to be named).

ING Cup: Matthew Elliott (capt), Brad Hodge, Jason Arnberger, Rob Bartlett, Darren Berry, Simon Dart, Shane Harwood, Ian Hewett, Damien Fleming, Michael Klinger, Michael Lewis, Jon Moss.
