Australia captain Pat Cummins is in line to return for the third Ashes Test against England in Adelaide after being named in a 15-man squad yestersday.
Cummins is the only addition to an otherwise unchanged squad from Brisbane, where Australia won by eight wickets to take a 2-0 lead in the five-match series.
The 32-year-old Cummins has been sidelined since the tour to the West Indies in July with a lower back injury.
"We feel as though he'll be as best prepared as can be," Australia coach Andrew McDonald said.
