India has announced two separate squads for the upcoming ODI series against Australia, which is scheduled just before the commencement of the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.
One notable inclusion is veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. He is set to participate in the three-match series against Australia, marking his comeback to the ODI format after last appearing in January 2022.
It’s worth mentioning that Ashwin was initially left out of the 15-member World Cup squad that India announced, and he was also absent from the Asia Cup roster. The two ODIs against South Africa in 2022 were his first in five years, dating back to 2017, in the fifty-overs format for the Indian team before his recent inclusion.
Australia has also announced its team. Find below the full schedule and squads of both sides:
