More scans for Cummins, stars tipped for T20 World Cup
Selectors include experienced leaders Cummins and Hazlewood in the 15-man provisional T20 World Cup squad while monitoring injuries; final decisions depend on scans and player form.
- On Dec 29, 2025, Coach Andrew McDonald said `Pat will have a scan, I think in another four weeks, so that'll give us the information then on where he's at for the World Cup`, as Australia prepares to name a 15-man provisional squad including Cummins, Hazlewood, and David.
- Having missed the Ashes with muscle setbacks, Hazlewood and Cummins faced injuries while David was ruled out of the Hobart Hurricanes' BBL after a grade two right hamstring strain on Boxing Day.
- Cummins has played just one international since his July injury and has not played a T20I since the previous World Cup, while Coach Andrew McDonald noted `Josh is returning to bowl`.
- Australia will play three T20Is in Pakistan from late January, impacting squad availability before the February 11 World Cup in Colombo against Ireland.
- By naming a provisional 15-man group, Australia preserved options as selectors kept the squad flexible to replace Cummins based on scans, medical checks, or BBL form.
