Australia has announced its team for the ODI against Pakistan and the white-ball series against Bangladesh in May-June 2026. Mitchell Marsh, playing in IPL 2026, will be seen captaining the team in both the formats.
Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc have been rested. Billy Stanlake and Riley Meredith have returned to the ODI team. Ollie Peake, Liam Scott and Joel Davis have been included in the Australian team for the first time. Peak has been included in the team only for the ODI series against Pakistan, while Scott has been included in the team only for the ODI series against Bangladesh. Joel Davis will be seen playing only in the T20 series against Bangladesh.
Travis Head, Cooper Connolly, Ben Dwarshuis and Xavier Bartlett, playing in IPL 2026, will replace Peake, Stanlake, Meredith and Matt Short in the ODI series against Bangladesh. Glenn Maxwell, who has retired from the ODI format, has not been included in the T20 team.
Peak, Scott and Davis have been rewarded for their excellent domestic performances. Scott was named Sheffield Shield Player of the Year for 2025/26, while Davis was the most important player in the 2025/26 Big Bash League. Ollie Peake was the captain of the Australian team in the Under-19 World Cup 2026, after which he was included in the Australia A team.
Chairman of the selection committee, George Bailey, said, “It is always exciting for new players to get a chance to play international cricket and be a part of the national team. The mix of new and returning players along with experienced players will prove to be important on the subcontinent tour.”
