England will be without white-ball captain Jos Buttler for the One-Day International series against Australia as he recovers from a calf injury, with batter Harry Brook to lead the squad in his absence, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Sunday.
Thirty-four-year-old wicketkeeper-batter Buttler also missed the ongoing three-match Twenty20 series against Australia due to the same injury. That series is tied at 1-1 with the decider to be played later on Sunday.
Bowler Josh Hull, 20, is also out of the series with a quad injury. All-rounder Liam Livingstone has been brought into the ODI squad, the ECB added.
The first ODI of the five-match series will take place on Thursday at Trent Bridge.
