Bartlett rested for second ODI, Head released from white-ball squads

Xavier Bartlett, who starred on international debut at the MCG, will be rested for Sunday's second ODI against West Indies but is expected to return in Canberra for the third game.

Travis Head has been released from the ODI and T20I squads for the rest of the matches while Josh Hazlewood has been added for the second ODI in Sydney.

The management of Bartlett, who claimed 4 for 17 in Melbourne, is understood to be part of a plan to be careful with his workloads amid three ODIs in five days after his back injury last year, and without any one-day or Shield cricket this season.

"I was injured at the start of this year and didn't have a chance to play any domestic cricket, which was a frustrating time," he said after his Player-of-the-Match display. "But you can kind of see the light at the end of the tunnel and you've just got to keep trying to work hard because these days don't happen very often in the game of cricket."

Left-arm quick Spencer Johnson will join the squad as cover for the third ODI in Canberra on Tuesday.

Hazlewood was among Australia's all-format quicks initially rested for the ODI series following the Test summer but was included for the T20Is.

No replacement for Head has been named, which opens the door for Jake Fraser-McGurk to make his ODI debut at the SCG. Head fell in the first over of Australia's chase in Melbourne when he edged Matthew Forde for 4, following his king pair in the Gabba Test. He is expected to be part of the T20I squad for the tour of New Zealand.
