MELBOURNE (Reuters) -Australia all-rounder Marcus Stoinis has retired from one-day internationals with immediate effect to focus on T20 cricket, pulling out of the country's Champions Trophy squad. Au

Australia displayed a ruthlessness against Sri Lanka as they seek greatness in Test cricket with an eye towards legacy defining series in India and England in 2027.

Colombo: Captain Steve Smith admitted Tuesday the Champions Trophy would be on Australia minds when they play Sri Lanka in two one-day internationals this week, the final warm-ups for the eight-team tournament.

MELBOURNE (Reuters) -Australia captain Pat Cummins is all but ruled out of the Champions Trophy while fellow paceman Josh Hazlewood is also a doubt for the ODI tournament, coach Andrew McDonald said on Wednesday.

Sri Lanka have named a squad largely unchanged from the one that toured New Zealand in January this year for the two ODIs against Australia at home later this week. The one change is that seam-bowling allrounder Chamindu Wickramasinghe is out as the squad has been trimmed from 17 for that New Zealand series to 16.
