So far 3 players have been out of the Australian team in this White Ball series. The third player to be excluded is Mitchell Oven, who has been a victim of conversion. Due to the conversion, Mitchell Oven has been out of the T20 series against South Africa not only from the T20 series but also from the ODI series after that.
