All-rounder Jacob Bethell has returned from a knee injury after England named their squads for November’s white-ball tour of Australia.

Bethell, who was injured during England’s one-day series win over India in July, has been picked for both the ODI and T20 squads.

Jofra Archer returns for the ODIs after being rested for this month’s tri-series in Pakistan.

Uncapped bowler Eddie Jack and 18-year-old wicketkeeper-batter Thomas Rew have earned their first senior England call-ups in the T20 squad.

Wicketkeeper-batter Phil Salt is also back in the T20 side after missing last month’s 3-0 series win over Sri Lanka with a quad injury.

Jos Buttler remains out as he recovers from hamstring surgery, while fast bowler Saqib Mahmood misses out with a knee injury.

Archer, Gus Atkinson, Sonny Baker and Josh Tongue will leave the tour after the three-match ODI series, as England manage their workloads ahead of December’s Test tour of South Africa.

The series is part of England’s preparations for next year’s ODI World Cup in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.

ODI squad: 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, Josh Tongue.

T20 squad: Harry Brook (captain), Tom Banton, Jacob Bethell, James Coles, Jordan Cox, Henry Crocombe, Sam Curran, Liam Dawson, Aneurin Donald, Eddie Jack, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Adil Rashid, Thomas Rew, Phil Salt, Luke Wood.
