Cricket Australia has announced that Hazlewood, who took 21 English wickets during the Ashes, has “low-level bone stress” in his back.

He has been replaced in a squad already missing Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins by the uncapped Michael Neser.

“Josh has been managing some low-level bone stress in his lumbar spine for a short period,” Cricket Australia physiotherapist David Beakley said.

“He had a repeat scan today and although it has not progressed to a fracture he is starting to experience some lower back pain.

“As such, we are taking a conservative approach and he will not travel to England for the one-day series.”

It means England will meet a squad drastically different to the one it faced Down Under over the winter.

As well as the pace trio, Steve Smith and David Warner are also missing after their suspensions in the wake of the ball-tampering scandal. Mitch Marsh is also injured.

Australia’s commitments in England start against Sussex on June 7, with a clash with Middlesex two days later.

They then play five ODIs against England, with a T20 tagged on, before heading to Zimbabwe.
