Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood are officially out of the Champions Trophy in Pakistan as Australia unveiled a host of replacements for the white ball matches to follow the Tests against Sri Lanka.

In addition to Cummins (ankle) and Hazlewood (hip), Mitchell Marsh is out of the tournament with back trouble and Marcus Stoinis announced a snap retirement from ODI matches earlier on Thursday.

The final Champions Trophy squad will be named after the second Test in Galle.

Sean Abbott, Cooper Connolly and Tanveer Sangha are already in Sri Lanka and will hang around, while Jake Fraser-McGurk, Ben Dwarshuis and Spencer Johnson will join them.

“Unfortunately Pat, Josh and Mitch are managing some ongoing injuries and haven’t come up in time for the Champions Trophy,” Chair of Men’s selectors George Bailey said.

“While disappointing, it does present a great opportunity for other players to perform for Australia in a world event.”
