MELBOURNE (Reuters) -Uncapped wicketkeeper Josh Inglis was the surprise inclusion in Australia's 15-man squad for the Twenty20 World Cup as selectors recalled paceman Pat Cummins and leading batsmen Steve Smith and David Warner for the tournament.

The strong squad quashes speculation Australia might spare some of their top players from the October-November World Cup ahead of a big summer highlighted by an Ashes series against England.
