“We have named a squad for the ODI series and first two games of the T20 series, as there will be some management through the back end of the series as individuals prepare for the summer through Sheffield Shield cricket,” Chair of Selector George Bailey, in an official statement, said:

“The majority of the T20 squad will remain together as it’s an important period in the build towards the World Cup next year; however, we are trying to strike a balance to ensure we simultaneously prepare certain individuals for the Test series ahead.”

Where will the games take place?

The three ODIs will be played in Perth, Adelaide, and Sydney, while the five T20Is will take place in Canberra, Melbourne, Hobart, the Gold Coast, and Brisbane.

Pat Cummins will play no part in the eight white-ball matches as his workload is being managed as the Australia Test captain looks to recover in time for the Ashes against England, beginning November 21 in Perth.
