QUICK SINGLE Lynn ruled out of ODI series with injury

Glenn Maxwell

The 29-year-old is in career-best form having amassed 590 runs in five JLT Sheffield Shield matches this summer. But as national selector Trevor Hohns pointed out in the squad selection statement, Maxwell has averaged just 22 in his past 20 matches in the format. Captain Steve Smith told reporters he thinks Maxwell can be "smarter" with the way he trains and wants to see him post consistent scores as he tries to fight his way back into the side ahead of the 2019 World Cup.

Shaun Marsh

Marsh was the leading run-scorer in the JLT One-Day Cup with 412 runs at 82, which included one century and three fifties in Western Australia’s run to the title. He’s been Australia’s most reliable batsman in the Magellan Ashes behind Steve Smith but hasn’t been in the ODI side since February last year in New Zealand. At 34, and with Australia’s selectors looking ahead to the World Cup in England and Wales in 17 months’ time, Marsh’s time in the 50-over side might be up. But there is perhaps only one batsman in the country in better form than the left-hander.

D'Arcy Short

If selectors want to take a punt on a relatively unknown but immensely talented powerhouse, left-hander Short could be an option. A middle-order player domestically, Short has batted just eight times in List A cricket, including three times in WA's dominant JLT Cup campaign in October. But he scored 119 not out in one of those occasions and his form in the KFC BBL, he has scored 284 runs from just five matches, makes him one of the most in-form players on the domestic scene.

Ashton Turner

The highly-rated Western Australian allrounder has already represented his country in T20 cricket and has been in red-hot form for Perth Scorchers in the BBL. The right-hander didn't set the competition alight in the JLT One-Day Cup, but has produced three match-defining innings for the Scorchers already this season, including a 32-ball innings of 70 on Monday night. A handy off-spinner and good fielder, Turner is an all-round package ideally suited to short-form cricket.

Peter Handscomb

Handscomb was in Australia's ODI XI in the subcontinent in September and played as a wicketkeeper when Matthew Wade was dropped partway through the series against India. Having lost his place in the Test team to Mitchell Marsh, the 26-year-old has returned to the KFC Big Bash League with Melbourne Stars as the side’s gloveman. He said after the Stars’ loss in Perth, where he kept wickets, that he wanted to play in Australia’s limited-overs teams as a wicketkeeper-batsman, but the selectors have gone with Tim Paine meaning Handscomb's only chance for now is as a batsman.

Usman Khawaja

The left-hander hasn't played ODI cricket in almost a year and a career average of 31 at the level hardly demands selection. But 380 runs at 63 in the JLT Cup and a return to form in the fifth Ashes Test means he could be discussed, particularly given Australia are flush with attacking players but lacking more steady hand in the middle order.
