Actually, Australia has announced the team for the T20 series but the name of its captain is yet to be finalized. The 3-match ODI and T20 series between Pakistan and Australia will be played between 4 and 18 November.

Mitchell Marsh is the captain of Australia's T20 team, he will not captain the team in the series against Pakistan. The reason for Mitchell Marsh not captaining the team in this series is that he will not play in the series. Australian all-rounder Marsh will be out of the T20 series against Pakistan due to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against India.

Who will Replaced Mitchell Marsh As T20I Captain for Australia?

Josh Inglis, Matthew Short and Adam Zampa are the three big contenders to replace Mitchell Marsh as captain in the T20 series against Pakistan. However, there is no player in the 13-member team who has had captaincy experience before. In the T20 series against Pakistan, Australia will not only miss the regular captain but also the head coach. In fact, Andrew McDonald will not be the coach to focus on the Test series against India. In his place, Andre Borovec will coach the team in the T20 series.

Australia T20I Squad for Pakistan Series: Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Aaron Hardie, Josh Inglis, Spencer Johnson, Glenn Maxwell, Matthew Short, Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa.
