Hayden was dropped for Twenty20 and CB Series against South Africa. Australia announced the squads for both formats of the game stating "We are moving on," and added "There is no doubt our advance plans were for Matthew to go through to the Ashes. That would be our ideal outcome. We've got to sit down as a panel to make a decision whether it's still the way to go." Considering his recent poor performance CA had looked for young players who can do good for the game. While Michael Clarke will miss Twenty20 games due to ligament damage to his right thumb, on other hand Mitchell Johnson rested because of busy work load.
