However, there's new information indicating that Matthew Short and Jake Fraser-McGurk could be added to the squad as backup players.

It's now being speculated that McGurk will join the team as a travel reserve after his impressive IPL 2024 performance. Fraser-McGurk and Short are included to ensure that the team is prepared to handle any situation that may arise. A chance may be given to the reserve player if any of the 15 players for Australia are injured or must withdraw from the tournament for any other reason.
