Australia on Monday announced squads for their upcoming multi-format series in Sri Lanka, comprising three T20Is, five ODIs, and two Tests. Australia's Test skipper Pat Cummins has been rested for the T20I series, while spinner Adam Zampa will miss the entire tour to attend the birth of his first child. Meanwhile, pacers Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood return to the white-ball sides.

  • They will also visit India for the prestigious Border-Gavaskar Trophy in October.
