Travis Head of Yorkshire bats during the NatWest T20 Blast
Yorkshire's treble aspirations have taken a blow as Travis Head has been called up by Australia for the one-day international series with Sri Lanka.
The 22-year-old, who has been in great form for the Tykes since arriving in July, has been added to his country's squad for the five-match series which begins on August 21.
Head will travel to Colombo immediately and join up with the Test team ahead of Saturday's final game of a series Australia have already lost, but the batsman will not play a part.
Head joined Yorkshire in July and scored 113 runs in four NatWest T20 Blast appearances and 277 in as many Royal London One-Day Cup games to help Yorkshire reach the quarter-finals of both competitions.

Australia coach Darren Lehmann said in quotes reported on cricket.com.au: "He's a young player who has the attributes we think are quite important here.
"We've been impressed with him. That's why he has come in a bit early."
