Australia will face Thailand on Nov. 15 without the former Everton and New York Red Bulls midfielder.
Tim Cahill has been dropped by Australia coach Ange Postecoglou for the Socceroos' upcoming World Cup qualifier against Thailand as a part of four changes to his squad.
Postecoglou trimmed his initial 30-man list to 23 on Wednesday, with Brisbane Roar forward Jamie Maclaren earning a late call-up after scoring his opening goal of the A-League season against Perth Glory on Sunday.
FC Tokyo forward Nathan Burns, Perth Glory fullback Josh Risdon and 1860 Munich defender Milos Degenek were also recalled.
