MCC Cricket Commitee have recommended binning bi-lateral ODI cricket excepting the 12mths leading into an ODI World Cup.

Was always bound to happen, just making room for more teeball comps

No Labuschagne, the Australian selectors finally listened to @Lightning McQueen [emoji38]

Australian ODI squad: Pat Cummins (c), Sean Abbott, Ashton Agar, Alex Carey, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Tanveer Sangha, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, David Warner, Adam Zampa

Marnus Labuschagne's World Cup dream has been shattered after being dropped from Australia's one-day side, while uncapped leg-spinner Tanveer Sangha and WA allrounder Aaron Hardie have bolted into the mix for the tournament to be played in India later this year.

Cricket Australia today named an extended 18-man squad for the ODI World Cup that will later be trimmed to 15, with a five-match series in South Africa in September the first assignment.

Selectors also named a new-look T20 squad with a strong Big Bash flavour for three matches in South Africa before the ODI World Cup build-up begins, with big names rested from the shortest format ahead of a gruelling one-day campaign.

Labuschagne is the most notable omission from the 50-over squad having played 30 of Australia's 38 matches since his debut in January 2020, with an average of 31.37.

Pat Cummins was revealed to have a fractured wrist that will keep him sidelined for six weeks but will join the ODI squad in South Africa in preparation for a return to playing in India, where Australia have a three-game series in late September ahead of the World Cup.

Mitchell Starc is also recuperating from a shoulder injury picked up in the Ashes but has been cleared for the South Africa ODIs.

Cummins – Australia's ODI captain – has "an undisplaced fracture of his left radius which requires six weeks rehabilitation," said Australia's selection chair George Bailey.

"We view a period of enforced rest for Pat as a positive ahead of this important World Cup campaign.

"There are still a number of games he could play before the World Cup which is more than enough for him to have a strong preparation."

Selectors have not named a vice-captain for the ODI squad. Hazlewood skippered the team in one match against England last November, while Steve Smith took on the job for a three-match tour of India in March this year.

Sangha's selection is a real bolt from the blue – the 21-year-old has not played any top-level cricket since a one-day domestic practice match in Coffs Harbour last September, after which he was diagnosed with a back stress fracture that sidelined him for the entire 2022-23 summer.

Sangha had previously toured with Australia's T20 squad to New Zealand in February 2021, and while named in an extended squad for tours of the Caribbean and Bangladesh later that year, he ultimately did not make the touring party.

Glenn Maxwell will miss the ODI leg of the South Africa tour with the 34-year-old expecting the arrival of his first child, and will join the squad in India, where they are scheduled to play a three-match ODI series between September 22 and 27 with games in Mohali, Indore and Rajkot.

Veteran David Warner and Travis Head look set to form a left-handed opening combination for Australia, although Mitch Marsh may remain an option after dominating as opener in Warner's absence during March's three-game tour of India.

Hardie's inclusion in the extended ODI squad shows how highly rated he is by selectors, having also been included in the T20 squad. While a T20 cap appears certain, the WA product will be vying with Marsh, Cameron Green, Marcus Stoinis and Sean Abbott to fill the seam-bowling allrounder spots with three players to be trimmed before the World Cup.

Ashton Agar joins Adam Zampa and Tanveer as spin bowlers in the squad, while noted death overs specialist Nathan Ellis joins familiar faces Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood as pace bowling options.

Jhye Richardson was not considered as he continues his recovery from a series of hamstring issues that have plagued him, while Lance Morris is on the comeback trail from a back issue.

Selectors expect to trim the ODI squad to 15 in early September, but can make changes up until September 28, after which any changes require ICC approval.

Mitch Marsh will captain Australia's first T20 internationals since Aaron Finch's retirement, leading a squad with a strong Big Bash flavour on the tour of South Africa.

Western Australia's rising star allrounder Aaron Hardie, reigning KFC BBL player of the tournament Matt Short and breakout left-arm firebrand Spencer Johnson are all in line for an international debut during the three-match T20 series.

Steven Smith has been ruled out of Australia's entire limited-overs tour of South Africa due to a wrist injury he sustained in the Ashes, but he is set to be available for the ODIs in India and the World Cup. Perth Scorchers' captain Ashton Turner has been called in as his replacement for the T20Is and Marnus Labuschagne has been added for the ODIs.

It is understood Smith battled a left wrist issue, caused by a tendon injury, throughout the England series and he is currently wearing a splint to aid his recovery. He was set to open in the T20Is against South Africa, following his prolific return to the BBL last season, and was one of the few players from the Ashes squad named in that series. But he will now be sidelined until Australia's series against India starting on September 22 in India just prior to the World Cup.

Mitchell Starc will also remain at home before heading out to join the India series as he recovers from a groin soreness sustained in the Ashes. Spencer Johnson, the uncapped left-arm quick who was named in the T20 squad, will remain in South Africa for the ODIs.

What a crazy game last night in the 2nd ODI Afghanistan v Pakistan

After being bowled out for 59 in the 1st ODI Afghanistan responded with 5/300 which included a 227 run opening partnership
Pakistan after being in a solid position at 1/170 off 30 then collapsed and at 8/272 requiring 29 off only 14 balls all looked lost but a big 49th over of 16 saw the equation of 11 to get off last over which started in spectacular fashion when non striker Shadab was MANKADDED This left the last pair to get the 11 needed which they did off the 2nd last ball.

Now for the real shock. Player of the Match was awarded to Shadab Kahn for his 48 off 35 balls at the back end of the innings to contribute to the win. Against that he had bowling figures of 0/53 (10) and got Mankadded in the last over !!!!!

How does Afghanistan opener and keeper Rahmanullah Gurbaz with 151 (151) or Pakistan Opener Iman Ul Haq with 91 not get the Player of the match ????

I watched some of the Aus vs SAF T20's. Inglis looks a hell of a batsman in the white ball format. I would pick him instead of Carey in the World Cup team, although with Carey's excellent keeping in the recent Indian series, perhaps there is a place for both of them in a World Cup XI?
