Australia has made a change to their squad for the Champions Trophy semi-final against India in Dubai. Cooper Connolly will replace Matt Short, who is out due to a quad injury.

Connolly comes in as a similar replacement to Short, with spin playing a key role in the tournament. This change will require some adjustments to the Australian batting lineup. Tanveer Sangha will also replace Spencer Johnson in the squad.

Australia captain Steve Smith is confident that his team can handle India’s strong spin attack in the semi-final. This match is a rematch of the 2023 World Cup final, where Australia defeated India.

Australia won their opening match against England but faced two rain-affected games in Pakistan. India won all three of their group games, with their spinners leading the way.

The semi-final between India and Australia promises to be an exciting contest, with both teams aiming for a place in the final.
