``We have complete confidence in our boys and believe we should wait to see how they go on Australian wickets when they return from India, always a very hard place to play,'' Rogers said.
Rogers is in Western Australia to watch the opening game of the West Indies tour _ a one-day carnival match Monday against his Australian Cricket Board Chairman's X1 at Lilac Hill Park, Caversham, near here.
He said he believed the Australian side would benefit from their tough experiences in India, where they have been humbled by South Africa and India and eliminated from the final of the competition after their narrow defeat by India Sunday night.
``We have some good players coming through and some excellent reserves and we fully stand by our players,'' Rogers said. ``They are now well paid professionals and we are looking forward with confidence for them to perform for us.''
Australia claim to be the unofficial world Test champions after defeating the West Indies 2-1 in the Caribbean early last year.
But Mark Taylor's men have only two and a half weeks in which to regroup before they take on the determined West Indies in the opening Test of a five-match series starting in Brisbane, Queensland, on November 22.
