Mitch Marsh, Glenn Maxwell and Jhye Richardson are the headline returning names in Australia's 16-man squad to play India in a three-match ODI series during March.
The series, which immediately follows the four-Test series for the Border-Gavaskar series, will be like gold for both sides as the increasingly limited number of ODIs sees preparations throws questions over the World Cup, also to be held in India during October and November.
Marsh and Maxwell have both spent time on the sidelines injured for Australia, and their returns are joined by that of star quick Jhye Richardson.
It has also been revealed that David Warner and Ashton Agar, who have recently returned from India ahead of the final two Tests, will rejoin the squad for the 50-over set up.
Pat Cummins, who captains Australia in Test and ODI cricket, is also part of the squad. He has rushed home between the second and third Test against India, but all reports suggest he doesn't plan to miss any cricket.
"With the World Cup just over seven months away, these matches in India are an important step in our preparation," Selection chief George Bailey revealed.
"Glenn, Mitchell and Jhye are all important players in what we think the squad might look like come October."
Josh Hazlewood has been left out of the squad as the other player who has returned home after suffering an injury.
