Australia Recall Starc for India ODIs, Retain Marsh as Captain

Selectors signal workload management through separate squads, with Shield commitments shaping availability.

Overview

A 15-player ODI squad was named for India on October 19, 23 and 25 in Perth, Adelaide and Sydney.
Pat Cummins remains out as he recovers from lumbar bone stress, with Mitchell Marsh continuing as stand-in captain.
Mitchell Starc returns to ODIs after retiring from T20Is last month and not playing the 50-over format since November 2024.
Matthew Renshaw, Matt Short and Mitchell Owen join the ODI group, while a 14-man squad was selected for the first two T20Is as part of World Cup build-up.
Availability is being managed individually: Alex Carey will miss the Perth ODI for Sheffield Shield, Josh Inglis and Nathan Ellis rejoin the T20 squad, Glenn Maxwell is still out with a fractured wrist and Cameron Green shifts to Test preparation with Western Australia after the ODIs.
