The selectors announced the groups on October 13, and Harry Brook will captain both the ODI and the T20I side. Three ODIs and five T20Is will be played across eight cities. The tour then runs until March, when a one-off day/night Test at the MCG marks 150 years of Test cricket.England are also looking ahead to next year’s ODI World Cup, so these squads matter beyond this tour. The ODI squad had two major returns at the time of selection. Jofra Archer came back after a period of rest, and Jacob Bethell was named after a knee injury that had kept him out since the ODI series against India in July.Jos Buttler is missing from both squads after hamstring surgery. Saqib Mahmood is out with a knee injury, and Luke Wood comes into the T20I squad. National selector Marcus North had initially announced that the returns of Bethell and Archer left England “at close to full strength” ahead of the World Cup in a year’s time.That has since changed. England confirmed on November 11 that Bethell has been ruled out of the white-ball tour altogether following a scan on his right knee, with James Coles and Eddie Jack called into the ODI squad as replacements for Bethell and Josh Tongue.Wishing you well, Jacob 💙Jacob Bethell has been ruled out of the white-ball tour of Australia following a scan on his right knee.James Coles and Eddie Jack have been called into the ODI squad as replacements for Jacob Bethell and Josh Tongue.— England Cricket (@englandcricket) November 11, 2026The T20I group has a younger look.

Rew would become only the third 18-year-old to play men’s international cricket for England if he features in the first three T20Is.MORE: BCCI President clarifies stance on Kohli, Rohit’s age, fitness for 2027 WC selectionEngland ODI squad for Australia tour 2026England named a 16-player squad for the three ODIs, with Brook as captain.
