Matthew Wade dropped from Test squad, Tanveer Sangha earns T20I call-up
Alex Carey and Mark Steketee have been included for the South Africa tour which is still awaiting final approval from the two boards
T20I squad Aaron Finch (capt), Matthew Wade (vc), Ashton Agar, Jason Behrendorff, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Ben McDermott, Riley Meredith, Josh Philippe, Jhye Richardson, Kane Richardson, Daniel Sams, Tanveer Sangha, D'Arcy Short, Marcus Stoinis, Ashton Turner, Andrew Tye, Adam Zampa
Test squad Tim Paine (capt), Pat Cummins (vc), Sean Abbott, Alex Carey, Cameron Green, Marcus Harris, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Moises Henriques, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Michael Neser, James Pattinson, Will Pucovski, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Mark Steketee, Mitchell Swepson, David Warner
So far plan is for the first test to be on Feb 18
Which means no Shield for anyone (recommences 12/2) , only BBL cricket
I suspect the current test XI would need a break, but guys wanting to make a claim for the squad ?
You would imagine at least an 18 man squad min would be sent over due to covid bubble and protocol, maybe more
Do we make any glaring omissions? Do we pick any left field guys?
10 Locks IMO
Warner
Pucovski
Labuschagne
Smith
Paine (I think he will be there)
Hazlewood
Lyon
Starc
Cummins
Pattinson

South Africa could be forced to field a second-string T20I side on their upcoming tour of Pakistan as the bulk of the squad will have to return home to prepare for three Tests against Australia.
Although the fixtures and venues for the Australia series are yet to be confirmed, provisional dates have the first Test scheduled to start on February 18, four days after the tour to Pakistan ends. The short turnaround could mean that some red-ball players, including temporary Test captain Quinton de Kock, could return home on February 8, after the second Test, in order to prepare for Australia.
