SYDNEY (Reuters) - Steve Smith, David Warner and Pat Cummins were brought back into Australia's 23-man extended squad for the limited overs tour of West Indies on Monday but Marnus Labuschagne missed out because of travel restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Batsmen Smith and Warner and paceman Cummins were among seven players included in Monday's squad who missed the tour of New Zealand in March having already been selected for the later aborted test tour of South Africa.
