PERTH - Western Australia's selectors have stuck by their word and recalled dashing opener Ryan Campbell for this week's Pura Cup match with South Australia at Adelaide Oval.

But pace star Brad Williams has been sidelined again with a recurrence of a back injury that forced him to miss WA's drawn Cup opener against Queensland at the WACA and will be replaced by Gavin Swan.

The Warriors have opted to take a spinner for Adelaide's spin-friendly wicket, meaning Murray Goodwin's position in the batting line-up will be filled by Campbell, while Brad Hogg will come into the squad as an extra bowler.

Goodwin had replaced Campbell in the Warriors' one-day side that defeated South Australia by three runs on Friday.

Warriors captain Tom Moody said he was omitted because the selectors wanted him fresh for this week's match after off-season knee surgery.

But the flamboyant opener, who scored a century in last season's one-day final victory over Queensland, publicly criticised the decision, saying he did not need rest and would play grade cricket.

However, there was no such response from Goodwin who was left out despite a match-winning unbeaten 62 Friday night.

"It is frustrating but that's cricket and he (Campbell) is a good player," Goodwin said.

"We've got a good batting line-up so you've got to take the good with the bad.

"I'm just hoping that once I do get in the side, I can consolidate my spot from there."

Goodwin said immediately after his innings on Friday that he expected to be replaced for the trip to Adelaide.

"You can't base Ryan on one match, and four-day cricket is so different. It doesn't have the intensity in the field and I think that was the only criteria," he said.

"I heard that Ryan was not playing because he wasn't fit. If he was fit, he would have played.

"So I didn't worry about that. I was just happy to be in the 12 to be honest. After not playing the four-dayer I was itching for a run."

Goodwin, who turned his back on a flourishing international career with Zimbabwe to rejoin the Warriors, is expected to be a regular once the international season starts and makes Adam Gilchrist, Justin Langer and Damien Martyn unavailable for most games.
