Cummins Hazlewood Lyon named for Bangladesh Tests

Australia named a 13-man squad to face Bangladesh in a two-match Test series starting in August, with captain Pat Cummins, Nathan Lyon and Josh Hazlewood returning from injury and Michael Neser left out. Usman Khawaja’s retirement opens a top-order vacancy while Cameron Green and Beau Webster maintain spots; the selectors expect Boland to feature later and stress that the heavy schedule could create further opportunities across formats as Australia seeks to consolidate their top position in the World Test Championship.
