Troubled Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds [ Images ] has been included in a preliminary squad for this year's Twenty20 [ Images ] World Cup in England [ Images ].

The national selectors named Symonds in a 30-man squad, that will be reduced to 15 before the tournament, after they were given the all-clear to consider him.

Symonds has been receiving counselling after a series of off-field incidents resulted in him being ruled out for selection until his behaviour improved.

"We are satisfied he is committed to doing the things needed of an Australia [ Images ]n international cricketer," Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland said in a statement.

Shaun Tait [ Images ], Shane Watson [ Images ], Brett Lee [ Images ] and Shaun Marsh [ Images ] were also named in the squad despite currently recovering from injuries.

Australia squad: Nathan Bracken [ Images ], Michael Clarke [ Images ], Callum Ferguson, Brett Geeves, Brad Haddin [ Images ], Ryan Harris, Shane Harwood, Nathan Hauritz [ Images ], Aaron Heal, Moises Henriques, Ben Hilfenhaus [ Images ], Brad Hodge [ Images ], James Hopes [ Images ], David Hussey [ Images ], Michael Hussey [ Images ], Mitchell Johnson [ Images ], Jason Krejza [ Images ], Ben Laughlin, Brett Lee, Graham Manou, Shaun Marsh, Ricky Ponting [ Images ], Rob Quiney, Peter Siddle [ Images ], Andrew Symonds, Shaun Tait, Adam Voges, David Warner, Shane Watson, Cameron White [ Images ].
