Alex Carey will be the wicket-keeper whereas all-rounder position will be filled with Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell. Aaron Finch will captain the team with Shaun Marsh, Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith as batting specialists. The most surprising omission from the squad was right-handed batsman, Peter Handscomb, who played some tremendous innings including 117 in Mohali which paved the way for Australia’s highest ODI chase ever in India. Handscomb, who is also a backup wicket-keeper, was left out because of the endless supply of top order batsmen. Young all-rounder Ashton Turner who recently made his debut was also missed out in squad.
