Off-spinner Daniel Cullen has replaced seam bowler Stuart Clark in Australia’s squad for the ICC Champions Trophy.

Cullen is the third replacement player the technical committee has approved after Zimbabwe's Tafadzwa Mufambisi came in in place of Vusi Sibanda and Faisal Iqbal of Pakistan replaced Inzamam-ul-Haq.

Clark is out of action until at least next month after tearing a thigh muscle while playing club cricket.

Australia's opening match of the tournament is on October 18 against the second qualifier from the preliminary round.
