Australia's Nathan Ellis has been ruled out of the T20I series against Scotland and the upcoming ODI series against England due to a hamstring injury sustained during The Hundred. Ellis was expected to lead a young pace attack, filling in for senior bowlers Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood, who will return for the England series. Meanwhile, India is gearing up for a challenging five-Test series against Australia, aiming to maintain their recent winning streak. Former bowling coach Paras Mhambrey has suggested Prasidh Krishna as a potential third seamer, given his ability to utilize the Kookaburra ball, although Krishna is currently sidelined due to injury. In England, rookie Josh Hull has been selected to debut against Sri Lanka, showcasing the team's shift towards nurturing young talent rather than relying solely on experienced players. This trend reflects a broader strategy under head coach Brendon McCullum and captain Ben Stokes to inject fresh talent into the squad.
