All-rounder Moises Henriques earned a surprise recall Tuesday to Australia's Test squad for Sri Lanka after James Pattinson was ruled out injured while pace spearhead Mitchell Starc returns after a six-month injury absence.

Australia are embarking on their first Test tour of Sri Lanka in five years, as part of a two-month series that also involves five one-day internationals and two Twenty20s.
