Australia has brought back Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, and Mitchell Starc to its 18-man roster for the upcoming three-match One-Day International series in India.
Due to injuries, the three missed their recent trip to South Africa.
Travis Head, who suffered a fracture in his left hand in South Africa, has been replaced by Matthew Short, who is yet to make his ODI debut.
Aaron Hardie, Tim David, and Michael Neser were also absent, and all-rounder Ashton Agar is on paternity leave.
While pacer Spencer Johnson retains his spot, Marnus Labuschagne joins the squad after scoring an unbeaten 80 and 124 in the first two ODIs against the Proteas.
The three one-day internationals will be played in Mohali, Indore, and Rajkot on September 24, 28, and October 1, respectively, before the ODI World Cup, which begins on October 5.
Australia squad for India ODIs: Pat Cummins (c), Sean Abbott, Alex Carey (wk), Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis (wk), Spencer Johnson, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Tanveer Sangha, Matthew Short, Steven Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, David Warner and Adam Zampa.
