Australia has announced its squad for the ODI series against India and South Africa. The 18-member squad of the 5-time World champions has a plethora of all-rounders. The squad is also said to have players who are likely to play in the ODI World Cup in India. The clarity of thought of the Australian selectors is clearly visible in the selections.

Pat Cummins is named the captain of the Australian team. Alex Carey is likely to keep wickets for the team with Josh Inglis as the backup. The bowling attack looks great with the likes of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Adam Zampa, Nathan Ellis, Ashton Agar, Aaron Hardie, and Tanveer Sangha. The pace attack is fabulous and with variety, and so is the spin attack.  

The batting unit is great as well. The likes of David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, and Alex Carey can fire with the bat.
