Melbourne, October 7 (Udaipur Kiran): Australia’s pace spearhead Mitchell Starc has been recalled to the national squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against India, beginning October 19 in Perth. Starc, along with Matthew Short and Mitchell Owen, has returned after recovering from injuries. Matthew Renshaw has also earned a place in the 15-member squad, which will continue to be led by Mitchell Marsh.
Cricket Australia also announced the squad for the first two matches of the five-match T20I series against India, scheduled from October 29 to November 8, as part of preparations for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026.
