The 16-player squad, selected by the Youth Selection Panel in collaboration with State Talent Managers, will embark on a multi-format series in India beginning in September. The tour includes three 50-over matches and two four-day games, marking the start of a new World Cup cycle for Australia, as per a release by Cricket Australia.
