ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023: Australia Name Preliminary World Cup Squad, Sangha, Hardie Surprise Inclusions
Australia have announced some surprise selections in their 18-player squad for this year's ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in India. Uncapped leg-spinner Tanveer Sangha and inexperienced all-rounder Aaron Hardie are the surprise inclusions, with Test star Marnus Labuschagne the notable omission from Australia's squad that will be reduced to 15 players closer to the start of the tournament on October 5, reports ICC. Under ICC regulations squads must be finalised prior to September 28, with Australia’s first game at this year’s World Cup coming against hosts India in Chennai on October 8.
Captain Pat Cummins will be racing against the clock to be fit for that opening contest, after it was revealed the fast bowler picked up a fractured wrist during the recent Ashes series against England.
