Sydney: Australia named three uncapped players Thursday in a preliminary 26-man squad for a potential limited-overs tour of England, while recalling Glenn Maxwell and Usman Khawaja.
Australia originally scheduled three one-day and three Twenty20 internationals in England this month, but the trip was postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
September is seen as the potential alternative after international cricket in England resumed behind closed doors last week, although Cricket Australia (CA) said "several hurdles" have to be overcome before dates can be locked in.
