NORTHAMPTON - Adam Gilchrist will lead Australia in the one-day cricket match against Northamptonshire tomorrow while Steve Waugh takes a rest.
Steve and Mark Waugh, Wade Seccombe and Shane Warne have been omitted as Australia continues its policy of rotating players.
Fast bowler Nathan Bracken has been named in the XI despite having a minor shoulder strain.
The match, starting at 8pm (AEST), is the last for Australia before back-to-back internationals against Pakistan and England in the tri-series tournament at Cardiff on the weekend.
The team is: Adam Gilchrist (c), Matthew Hayden, Ricky Ponting, Michael Bevan, Damien Martyn, Andrew Symonds, Ian Harvey, Damien Fleming, Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie, Nathan Bracken (12th man to be added).
