After being dropped from the Australian squad immediately after the England tour, opener Matthew Hayden has been included in the 30-man squad named to tour India for the Champions Trophy in October.
Also included in the squad is veteran paceman Glenn McGrath, who had previously been deemed as doubtful for selection for the tournament, as he continues to be in support of his wife Jane as she continues to battle with cancer. A Cricket Australia spokesman states, 'It is a work in progress. The selectors and Glenn continue to talk about the appropriate time and place for his return to cricket'. In addition to this, Cricket Australia selectors have decided to 'blend' experience and youth, with inclusions of Travis Birt, Ben Hilfenhaus, Doug Bollinger, Shaun Marsh, Cameron White, Dan Cullen and David Hussey.
However, Cricket Australia is looking to trim the 30-man side to a squad consisting of only 14 players. The full 30-man squad is listed below.
