England seamer Gus Atkinson is set to take a break during this month's One-Day International (ODI) series against Australia, according to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). His spot will be filled by fellow bowler Olly Stone.

The series will see England hosting Australia for three Twenty20 matches, followed by five ODIs. The first of these will be held on September 19 at Trent Bridge.

Atkinson played a key role in England's recent 2-1 test series victory against Sri Lanka. The current England ODI squad includes notable players such as Jos Buttler (captain), Jofra Archer, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook, and others.
