INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE | KL RAHUL FIRST IN IPL TO 1,000+ RUNS FOR THREE FRANCHISES
MATCH TODAY – GUJARAT TITANS VS SUNRISERS HYDERABAD AT 7:30 PM
Sydney, May 11: Australia has rested its premier pace trio of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood for the upcoming limited-overs tours of Pakistan and Bangladesh, opting to manage their workloads following a gruelling Indian Premier League season.
The decision opens the door for fresh talent even as Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood use the break to prepare for Australia’s World Test Championship campaign, which resumes in August with a two-match home Test series against Bangladesh.
The trio will miss the three-match series against Pakistan starting May 30, with uncapped all-rounder Liam Scott and Australia Under-19 World Cup captain Ollie Peake earning their first senior international call-ups in a new-look Australian squad.
The IPL concludes on May 31. (PTI)
