Launceston-born James Faulkner was left out of the squads for the West Indies and Ashes tours, just days after he was named most valuable player in the Aussies' triumph over New Zealand.
There was a distinct lack of Tasmanian flavour in the squads, which were released on Tuesday morning, with only Andrew Fekete named in the Australia A line-up to face India A in July.
However, Faulkner and George Bailey were named among the 19 contracted players for the 2015-16 season.
