Australia will be without their star pace trio of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood when they travel to Bangladesh for a three-match ODI and a three-match T20I series. The squad shake-up has been the biggest talking point among fans and experts. Glenn Maxwell is another major name missing from the T20 setup, opening the door for fresh faces.
The tour could become a stage for Australia's next generation. Cooper Connolly, Todd Murphy, Liam Scott have been included in the ODI squad as the Australian selectors confirmed on Monday that Travis Head and Mitch Marsh will miss another ODI series.
"We were hopeful Mitch Marsh would be available for the Bangladesh ODI series however he is still returning to full fitness from an ankle injury," cricket.com.au quoted national selector Tony Dodemaide as saying. "Mitch will join the group in Dhaka and begin preparations for the T20I Series."
"Travis was initially selected in the ODI and T20I legs of this Bangladesh tour but has subsequently been granted personal leave for both. We look forward to seeing him again for the top end Test Series against Bangladesh," he added.
For Bangladesh, all eyes will be on captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz, with the hosts largely backing a settled core after their recent ODI success. The likes of Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed and Litton Das remain key names as Bangladesh eye to dominate the series at home.
The three-match ODI series begins on June 9. The match will be played at the Sher-e-Bangla stadium in Dhaka at 10:30 a.m. The second ODI is scheduled for June 11, while the final match takes place on June 14.
