Maxwell Recalled as Australia Rotate T20I Squad

Australia have overhauled their white-ball squads for the five-match T20I series against India (Oct 29–Nov 8), recalling all‑rounder Glenn Maxwell—cleared after recovering from a fractured wrist—to play the final three games. Selectors rotated pace options to manage workloads ahead of the Ashes (beginning Nov 21), releasing Josh Hazlewood after two T20Is and Sean Abbott after three. Uncapped quick Mahli Beardman and Ben Dwarshuis were added for the later matches, with wicketkeeper Josh Philippe named as cover. The ODI squad was adjusted too: Marnus Labuschagne was released to play Sheffield Shield and Jack Edwards and Matt Kuhnemann were added for the Sydney dead rubber. Selectors said the changes balance injury management, give emerging players opportunities and prioritise red‑ball preparation ahead of the Ashes.
