Australian squad is named today at 11:30am EDT
I have heard/read different possibilities in regards to the squads make-up.
SMH and Daily Telegraph expects up to 16 players named:

While Peter English from Cricinfo expects only 13 players named:
IF SMH and DT are right, the next ten days are going to be among the most intriguing ten days in Australian cricket for a while, with either a very frustrating pay-off (no changes to the team except for Siddle in for Bollinger) OR a very exciting pay-off (one or two new comers in the team AND hopefully no Siddle) OR frustratingly exciting (one or two newcomers AND Siddle)
