| Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Marsh, Jhye Richardson return to Australia squad for India ODIs | | |  agencies
NEW DELHI, Feb 23: All-rounders Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh, along side pacer Jhye Richadson were on Thursday named in Australia's 16-member ODI squad for next month's three-match series in India.
The trio will make its long-awaited return to international cricket along side Pat Cummins, David Warner and Ashton Agar, who have also been named in the squad.
The upcoming three ODIs will be played in Mumbai on March 17, Visakhapatnam on March 19 and Chennai on March 22.
Cummins returned home after the second Test in Delhi due to family illness, while Agar was released from the touring squad to play in domestic cricket. Warner, on the other hand, has been ruled out of the remaining two Tests due to an elbow injury.
Pat Cummins, however, is set to return ahead of the third Test to be held in Indore from March 1. Maxwell and Marsh both sat out of the game for a considerable amount of time after undergoing surgeries for broken leg and ankle injury respectively.
Maxwell, who broke his leg in a freak accident in November, has returned to the game only the last week while Marsh last featured in the three-match ODI series against England in November last year.
But pacer Josh Hazzlewood has been ruled out of the ODIs as well after returning home from the Test series, failing to recover from his Achilles tendonitis.
Jhye Richardson, who has recovered from his soft tissue injuries, has been out of the game since the limited overs tour to Sri Lanka in the middle of last year. It would be great for Josh to be part of this series but we have taken a conservative view ahead of a very important winter in England of which he will be an integral part," Australia's selection chief George Bailey said while announcing the squad.
Cummins will continue to lead Australia in the ODIs after Aaron Finch's retirement in October last year.
Travis Head is expected to partner Warner at the top in the ODIs.
