Pakistan will host the 'Kangaroos' for a three-match ODI series starting on May 30, but many of Australia's first-choice players are missing from the series. With the IPL final scheduled on May 31, this series would have conflicted with several IPL commitments of the Australian players.
Australia's 'Big Three' pacers have all been rested owing to not just IPL commitments, but also their workloads for the upcoming season. The team is scheduled to potentially play 21 Tests over the next 15 months, including tours to both India and England.
Cummins is also the full-time captain of the Australian team in both Tests and ODIs.
Travis Head
Head has been having a mixed bag of an IPL 2026 and will be gunning to go gung-ho in the playoffs.
But when the Australian squads were announced, PBKS were touted to be in the playoffs after a strong first half to IPL 2026. Ultimately, last year's runner-ups lost 6 matches in a row to get eliminated.
Mitchell Marsh
Marsh was originally named in Australia's squad because his team, the Lucknow Super Giants, were almost eliminated from the IPL when the squads were announced.
Marsh and Head are now basically confirmed to be the country's first-choice opening pair in ODIs, so it remains to be seen who replaces them.
In Marsh's absence, his IPL teammate and wicketkeeper Josh Inglis has been named the captain of the second-string team.
Pakistan vs Australia ODI series schedule
The action will then move to Lahore, where both the second and third ODIs will be played. The second ODI will be played on June 2, and the third on June 4.
