England's Ashes hero Joe Root will play no part in the limited-overs series against Australia, but there is a place in the T20 squad for the uncapped Reece Topley.

Joe Root has been rested from England's limited-overs series against Australia.

The 24-year-old batsman will miss the T20 clash and five one-day internationals, which get underway in Cardiff on August 31.

Uncapped Reece Topley is a part of the 13-man T20 squad, meanwhile, and there is also a place for all-rounder Moeen Ali after his omission against New Zealand earlier this summer.

Root was England's leading run-scorer in the 2015 Ashes triumph, which ultimately ended in disappoint for the Three Lions as they succumbed to a heavy fifth-Test defeat.

England T20 squad: Eoin Morgan (Middlesex, capt), Moeen Ali (Worcestershire), Sam Billings (Kent), Jos Buttler (Lancashire, wk), Steven Finn (Middlesex), Alex Hales (Nottinghamshire), Adil Rashid (Yorkshire), Jason Roy (Surrey), Ben Stokes (Durham), Reece Topley (Essex), James Vince (Hampshire), David Willey (Northamptonshire), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire)
