Australia dropped Ashes opener Marcus Harris on Friday from an otherwise settled squad for the two-Test tour of Sri Lanka in June and July. Scott Boland remains the back-up seamer ahead of Jhye Richardson in the Pat Cummins-led 16-man squad for the world's top-ranked Test team. They are part of an overall 34-man squad named for the all-format tour which also includes three T20s and five one-day internationals. Cummins will not play in the Twenty20 fixtures while spinner Adam Zampa will miss the entire tour due to the impending birth of his first child.
Shoaib Akhtar is one of the fastest bowlers that the game has ever produced and the batters still have nightmares about facing the Pakistan pacer.

Test captain Pat Cummins will be rested for the T20s, while spinner Adam Zampa will miss the entire tour because of the impending birth of his first child.

The Englishman is leading the Orange Cap race firmly with 499 runs in eight matches, averaging over 71. Buttler has already smashed three centuries, and is eyeing Virat Kohli's record of four tons in a single IPL season. During a recent chat with RR teammate Ravichandran Ashwin, Buttler revealed that former Pakistan spinner Mushtaq Ahmed helped him identify his weak areas and overturn them.
