Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins have been named to make their long-form returns in the Manuka Oval clash in Canberra alongside Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon as part of a full-strength attack.

Both struck down by back injuries over the winter, Hazlewood and Cummins will play their first elite red-ball cricket since last summer in this weekend's clash at Manuka Oval.

Starc also had his injury concerns over the off-season, but played in Australia's Test series loss against Pakistan last month before being rejoined by Hazlewood and Cummins in the one-day series against South Africa.

Lyon has already played one Shield game for NSW this summer, claiming four wickets in last week's rain-affected draw with Tasmania.

It will also mark just the second time the four have all played together in Shield cricket, after Starc claimed two hat-tricks in their one game at the start of last season against Western Australia.

They'll face a Queensland side that will likely include Test aspirants Matt Renshaw, Joe Burns and Marnus Labuschagne when the match begins Friday.
