Cricket News: India squad vs Australia to be announced on Friday

The national selection committee will meet on February 15 in Mumbai to pick the squad for the five-match ODI series against Australia. Experiments with the ODI squad are unlikely but vice-captain Rohit Sharma might be rested for the T20I series. Teams for the two T20I’s in Visakhapatnam and Bengaluru will also be announced on the same day. The team management will also have a discussion on workload management of players. Both the team management and the selection committee are on the same page that the squad which will play against Australia is likely to be a mirror-image of the one that will be travelling to the United Kingdom for the World Cup in May. The five-match ODI series between India and Australia will begin on March 2 and culminate in Delhi on March 13.
