Australia’s squad for Test series against the West Indies is in with three players axed from last summer’s triumphant Ashes group.
Michael Neser, Jhye Richardson and Mitchell Swepson have all missed out from the 13-man squad, named by Cricket Australia on Tuesday.
Victoria cult hero Scott Boland has been retained alongside the pace trio of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood with a bowling shootout for three spots looming.

Meanwhile, Travis Head has been picked in Australia’s ODI team as a likely replacement for the retired Aaron Finch.
