Australia bowling attack boosted as Cummins and Starc return v S Africa

Johannesburg, September 21 - The Australian cricket team's bowling attack for their upcoming one-day internationals against South Africa has been bolstered with the return of Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, according to Cricket Australia. The duo, who missed the recent 3-0 series win in Zimbabwe, will participate in the series that begins in Durban on Thursday.

Additionally, all-rounder Jack Edwards is poised to make his One Day International debut after stepping away from the Australia A tour of India. Edwards, 26, is set to replace Cameron Green, who is sidelined with a sore shoulder. Meanwhile, fast bowlers Billy Stanlake and Spencer Johnson are expected to return home after competing in Zimbabwe. Stanlake sustained a side strain and will undergo medical scans upon his return to Australia.
