Cricket Australia (CA) took centre stage and announced their 15-man squad that will be travelling to the West Indies and the USA for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, which is scheduled to begin on June 2. It was revealed that star all-rounder Mitchell Marsh will be leading the side, with the likes of Pat Cummins, Tim David, David Warner, Josh Hazlewood, and many more stars featuring as well.
However, in a major development, veteran batter Steve Smith has been left out of the provisional 15-man squad for the tournament. Furthermore, exciting young talent Jake Fraser-McGurk, who has been performing exceptionally well in the IPL, has also missed out.
The board opted for a second specialist spinner in Ashton Agar and a spare all-rounder in Cameron Green, as both players will allow for more flexibility from the side.
