Australia will play three ODIs in Pakistan, followed by another three in Bangladesh starting May 30, with Green's role expected to be one of the major talking points for the selectors.

The duo was omitted as selectors opted to assess other options following Australia's disappointing Men's T20 World Cup campaign earlier this year.

Young opening batsman Sam Konstas and veteran all-rounder Glenn Maxwell were axed Wednesday as Cricket Australia announced a list of 21 nationally contracted players for the 2026-27 season.

Eight teams will take part in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026, with 44 matches set to be played.

Australia have a limited T20I schedule before August 2027, with just eight bilateral matches currently lined up, and Maxwell has already stepped away from ODI cricket. Despite that, he remains hopeful of extending his international T20 career.
