Maxwell, Starc to return for South Africa clash
Australia have included Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell in their 12-man squad for Sunday's tri-series clash against South Africa in Barbados. Starc, the left-arm pacer, replaces Nathan Coulter-Nile while Maxwell comes in for the 22-year-old Travis Head, who had a largely forgettable One-Day International debut against West Indies in St. Kitts.
Maxwell, named Australia's ODI player of 2015, was left-out of the side for the St. Kitts leg of the tournament after registering scores of 0 and 3 in the team's opening two fixtures in Guyana. Maxwell's string of five consecutive single-digit scores led to his axing from the ODI side for the first time since November 2014, following which he'd established himself as an indispensable member of the team's middle order, going on to play an important role in Australia's World Cup triumph of 2015
Steven Smith, who also confirmed Starc's return to the squad after a precautionary rest, said the axing would have forced Maxwell to introspect. "He sat out the last couple and hopefully that's been a bit of a wake-up call for him," he said on Saturday (June 18). "We know what we want from him, it's a bit more consistency and that's what the selectors have told him. He gets an opportunity and hopefully he'll make the most of that."
Maxwell, who averaged a healthy 43 with the bat since his return to the Australian side in late 2014 and until the India series in January this year, suffered his slump through the extended Twenty20 run, through the T20 WC and culminating with the IPL. A tendency to play too many shots too early in his innings was held against him but Smith reckons that the 27-year-old all-rounder has "turned his head around."
The Australian skipper also shrugged off a quad injury problem he suffered against West Indies in the last game, conceding that while he might not be 100 percent fit, the injury won't rule him out of the game. "It's been a bit sore ... I think it's one of those injuries where I might not be able to go at 100 per cent, but I think I'll be right for the game. You want to be as close to 100 per cent as you can be, but that's part of playing international sport, particularly playing cricket for Australia.
Australia squad:
Usman Khawaja,
Aaron Finch,
Steve Smith (c),
George Bailey,
Glenn Maxwell,
Mitchell Marsh,
Matthew Wade,
James Faulkner,
Mitchell Starc,
Josh Hazlewood,
Scott Boland,
Adam Zampa

South Africa need to Win just 1 of the 2 Games to qualify for the Finals.
West Indies need to Win 2 of the 2 Games to qualify for the Finals. Even if West Indies win just 1 Game they can still qualify but for that they need to be dependent on other Teams.
