The world’s best batter Tim David has been included with leg spinner Mitchell Swepson missing out having been part of the team that was crowned the T20 World Cup for the first time and beat New Zealand in the final, in Dubai last year.

The team will go to India to play three T20 internationals in September, before heading back to play West Indies, England and India before the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup that begins against New Zealand at the SCG on the 22nd of October.

NSP Chair of Selectors George Bailey said, “This is a team that is similar to the one that became the first Australian men’s team to win the T20 World Cup who are looking forward to playing the tournament in their home stadium.

“Mitchell Swepson was unfortunate to be left out due to the conditions in the UAE at the time of the last World Cup where we planned for spinny, tired wickets in comparison to what we would consider to be good batting conditions, along with the larger pitches in Australia.

“Tim (David) is continuing to prove himself with his high-quality performances in leagues across the globe which has earned him a spot in the team.He is a gifted natural ball striker who can provide additional batting depth to the team, which has seen lots of great success in T20 cricket.

“We anticipate him to play the same role the one he has played in the last several years.”

David Warner will miss the Indian tour as part of an organized time of preparations for the full summer tour.Cameron Green has been included in the team for the Indian T20 Series.

“Cameron’s growth in all aspects of his game has been remarkable and we are thrilled for him to continue the development of his overall T20 cricket by further exposure to the format” Bailey said.

Australia Team: Aaron Finch (c), Ashton Agar, Pat Cummins, Tim David, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Kane Richardson, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Adam Zampa.
