Cricket Australia announced squads for the England ODIs and Test series against West Indies

Cricket Australia has announced the squads for the ODI and Test series against England and West Indies. Travis Head returns to the Australian ODI team after missing the series against Zimbabwe and New Zealand due to family commitments.

Pat Cummins will captain Australia in his first ODI series. Head will open with David Warner since Aaron Finch has announced his retirement from the ODI format. The three-match ODI series will start on November 17, four days after the conclusion of the T20 World Cup.

"Our focus is to continue to build a squad with an eye to next year's World Cup under Pat as the new ODI Captain, so it's an important series. Travis Head returns in place of Aaron Finch having played well in Pakistan and Sri Lanka earlier this year. He has demonstrated flexibility in the types of roles he can play in our ODI line-up. Our next opportunity in the ODI format will be in India next year which allow us to experience similar conditions as for the World Cup in October ". - George Bailey, national selector.

After the ODI series, Australia will face West Indies in a two-match Test series. The test series will begin on November 30th. Scott Boland and Marcus Harris are included in the 13 men's Test squad. Harris had a strong domestic season, and Scott Boland is the team's backup pacer.
