Since the World Cup is just a month away from us,  Cricket Australia has announced its squad for the same. Veteran players like Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, and David Warner have been added to the squad. The only surprise exclusion was of batter Marnus Labuschagne.

"Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell are on track in their return to play programs. All are well placed to come back online in the coming weeks and potentially for selection in the upcoming series against India," Bailey said.

"There are eight one-day matches still to play in South Africa and India before the final squad is due to be declared. They are followed by two Cricket World Cup practice games, which offers plenty of opportunity to continue the build for the tournament."
