"We feel for Mitch at this difficult time and we're happy he has taken time out to spend with his family," said coach Justin Langer. "We look forward to welcoming him back into the squad on Monday."

Should Starc not feel ready to line up alongside Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins in Adelaide, James Pattinson and Michael Neser are in the squad and on standby.
