Australia lose key players to injury for Bangladesh series

Mitch Marsh ruled out of the ODI series against Bangladesh, while Tanveer Sangha and Travis Head will miss the entire tour.

Australia have been dealt a blow with the loss of three key players for their upcoming white-ball tour of Bangladesh..

Skipper Mitch Marsh will miss the ODI portion of the series due to an ankle injury, while spinner Tanveer Sangha has been ruled out of the entire tour because of a hamstring issue.

Star opener Travis Head will also miss the entire tour, with the Aussies granting the hard-hitting left-hander personal leave ahead of a busy upcoming period that includes ICC World Test Championship fixtures against Bangladesh, South Africa and New Zealand.

It means Josh Inglis will once again lead the Aussies through the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh that commences on Tuesday after he captained the side during recent fixtures with Pakistan.
