Marsh back to skipper Australia in Windies T20s, Cummins and Starc rested
Mitchell Marsh will captain Australia in next month's Twenty20 series against West Indies while Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Travis Head have been rested from the 16-man squad, Cricket Australia said on Wednesday. All-rounder Marsh had missed Australia's last T20 series against Pakistan in November, with wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis leading the side in his absence. Batter Mitchell Owen, 23, has earned his first call-up to the squad after his fine season with Hobart Hurricanes, helping them to their first Big Bash League title by scoring the joint-fastest century in the tournament's history in the final. Glenn Maxwell, who retired from one-day internationals to focus on next year's T20 World Cup, has also been named in the squad but there was no place for batter Jake Fraser-McGurk or all-rounder Marcus Stoinis. 'We have a busy T20 schedule coming up through this series … as we continue to refine and build a squad we think will be the right fit for the World Cup on the subcontinent,' chair of selectors George Bailey said in a statement. 'There are a number of players outside the squad who can still force their way into the mix for those upcoming Indian Series and through the Big Bash. 'The connection, role development and combinations we will have as options are growing nicely as we build towards the World Cup.' Australia will play five T20s against the West Indies, with the opener taking place in Kingston on July 21. Squad Mitchell Marsh (c), Sean Abbott, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Ben Dwarshuis, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis, Spencer Johnson, Matt Kuhnemann, Glenn Maxwell, Mitch Owen, Matthew Short, Adam Zampa.

Punjab Kings bring in fastest BBL centurion to replace injured Glenn Maxwell for remainder of IPL 2025
Punjab Kings have announced their replacement for the injured Glenn Maxwell for the remainder of IPL 2025, with Australian Big Bash League hero Mitch Owen being drafted in by the franchise. IPL confirmed in a statement that Owen will be replacing Maxwell for the remainder of the season, receiving INR 3 crore. The all-rounder made a name for himself in this season's Big Bash, helping Hobart Hurricanes to the BBL14 title with a sparkling century in the final. Owen scored 108 off just 42 deliveries in the final in an innings that included 11 maximums, helping the Hurricanes chase down 183 in just 14.1 overs. It was the crowning achievement in a strong showing that saw Mitch Owen finish the season as the top-scorer in the tournament, finishing with 452 runs. Despite his powerful showing, Owen still awaits a debut for Australia in the shortest format. However, Owen's powerful batting has earned him a chance in the IPL, joining a PBKS team trying to reach their first IPL playoffs in 11 years. In his career in the T20 format, Owen has scored 646 runs at a strike-rate of 184 in 34 matches through his career. Owen is currently playing in the Pakistan Super League for the Peshawar Zalmi, having scored 101 runs in 6 innings at a strike-rate touching 200 this season. 23-year-old Owen joins forces with the greatest cricketer from his home territory of Tasmania, with Ricky Ponting in his first season as head coach with the Punjab team. Ponting also serves as head of strategy for Hobart Hurricanes, and has experience working with Owen in the past through the BBL team. He joins the strong Australian cohort already present within the PBKS camp. Maxwell had a quiet IPL season before his injury-enforced withdrawal caused due to a fractured finger, managing only 48 runs in seven matches at a strike-rate of less than run-a-ball. This included a string of six single-digit scores. Maxwell saw himself rotated with fellow Australian Josh Inglis in the middle order. The addition of Owen will provide a boost for Punjab Kings as the team tries to make the final push towards the playoffs. The Shreyas Iyer-led side prepares to their first match of the season at their secondary home base of Dharamsala, where they welcome Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday evening.
