England begin their one-day international series against Australia in Perth on Friday 13 November, with captain Harry Brook leading a 16-man squad into a three-match series that opens a busy month of white-ball cricket.

The first ODI takes place at Perth Stadium at 2.30pm local time under lights. The second match follows at Adelaide Oval on Sunday 15 November, and the series concludes at Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Wednesday 18 November. A five-match Twenty20 series then starts at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on 21 November and runs to 2 December.

England squad for the ODI series

Brook captains a squad that blends experience with newer faces. Joe Root and Adil Rashid bring long white-ball records, while Jofra Archer and Gus Atkinson lead the pace attack. The full squad is Harry Brook (captain), Jofra Archer, Gus Atkinson, Sonny Baker, Tom Banton, Jacob Bethell, Jordan Cox, Henry Crocombe, Sam Curran, Liam Dawson, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Adil Rashid, Joe Root and Josh Tongue.

Brook has spoken during the tour about wanting England to become the fittest and strongest side in the world, with a new training regime aimed at building towards next year's ODI World Cup in southern Africa. England's preparations for this series have been deliberately different from last summer's Ashes tour, with a greater emphasis on fitness and on-field intensity from the start of the trip.

Australia without their senior fast bowlers

Australia, led by Mitchell Marsh, have named a squad without senior fast bowlers Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood. Their squad is Mitchell Marsh (captain), Xavier Bartlett, Mahli Beardman, Alex Carey, Cooper Connolly, Jack Edwards, Cameron Green, Travis Head, Josh Inglis, Spencer Johnson, Ollie Peake, Matthew Renshaw, Liam Scott and Adam Zampa.

Beardman, the young Western Australia fast bowler, is in the squad after impressing with five wickets for Australia A in two one-day matches during last month's tour of India. He was also part of the Western Australia side that faced England in a 50-over warm-up match at the WACA Ground on 7 November, a game that marked the return of Lance Morris after 20 months out following back surgery and a side strain.

What the series means

The series gives both sides an early look at their one-day plans well ahead of the World Cup. For England, it is a chance for Brook's side to set the tone on tour after a demanding year, while Australia will test the depth of their bowling stocks without their established pace trio.

After the three ODIs, attention turns to the T20 series, with matches at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Gold Coast Stadium, the Gabba, the Sydney Cricket Ground and Manuka Oval in Canberra. England's T20 squad includes Phil Salt, Thomas Rew and Luke Wood alongside several of the ODI party, with Brook again in charge.

The first ball in Perth will be bowled at 2.30pm local time on Friday 13 November, with the day-night fixture giving both teams a first proper test of conditions at the start of the Australian summer.
