Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has expressed confidence that he will return for the remaining matches of the T20 series between India and Australia. Giving an update on his recovery after wrist fracture surgery, he said that he is targeting a return in the last three matches of the T20 series against India, which begins on October 29.

He is on the road to recovery after undergoing surgery last week and hopes it will speed up his return. Maxwell told reporters in Melbourne, "After the surgery, I expect to play in the last matches of the T20 series against India, provided I get fit in time. I had two options—either miss the series entirely and avoid surgery, or undergo surgery and keep a slight chance open. I chose the surgery option so that I could be ready before the Big Bash League (BBL) and fully recover my body."

Cricket Australia (CA) has announced its squad for all three matches of the ODI series against India and the first two matches of the T20 series. Mitchell Marsh will lead the Australian team in both formats. After three ODI matches between India and Australia, five T20 matches are to be played between October 29 and November 8 in Canberra, Melbourne, Hobart, Gold Coast, and Brisbane.
