SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia's test squad have been sent back to play domestic one-day cricket in order to prepare for next month's series against New Zealand after their tour to Bangladesh was postponed on Thursday due to security concerns.

The squad were originally due to leave on Monday but were told to stay back after their government warned of potential security risks.
