ENG vs AUS 3rd T20I 2024: Squad News
Australia
The Aussies will reflect on the 3 wickets defeat in the 2nd T20I at the hands of England. There were some concerning areas that the Aussies would love to rectify before the 3rd match and give a tough time to the England team. The lack of a fearless approach after the powerplay, or after the fall of Travis Head is costing them the match. Additionally, the lack of forms of a few players is haunting them. Australia would want their key players such as Stoinis, and David to set up and justify their selection in the team. The two had a mediocre T20 WC tournament and would love to silence everyone with their performance in the next match.
The management would also be looking forward to some technical improvement in the batting of Mathew Short. Youngster Jake Fraser registered his maiden half-century in T20Is after a bit of struggle during the Scotland tour, and Josh Inglis has also been seen maintaining consistency in the middle order. The team would also want Cameron Green to bat above Tim David and play his natural game, there’s a possibility that Tim could be dropped when Marsh comes back.
The team was seen struggling against the seasoned leg spinner Adil Rashid and he utilized every opportunity. Aussies will re-think their approach towards Rashid and counter him with a better plan.
The bowlers did decently well. However, they would love to choke runs in the middle overs to create pressure on the opposition. The absence of Hazlewood was a prime factor for the loss. Being the most experienced bowler in the squad, his understanding would have come in handy.
England
The batting of the English team was dominating as always. Their idea of playing aggressive cricket bore them fruit and they won the 2nd T20I comfortably. Once again Livingston did what he is known for. He played a wonderful knock of 87 runs and took the game away from the Aussies. Bethell too played a good knock and snitched a partnership that sealed the game for the England team.
The English team missed the service of Archer and for the second time, they conceded a lot of runs. The management would be concerned about their bowling department and look into the matter to build a strong bowling unit. Brydon Carse was a positive for the England team who executed his deliveries brilliantly and picked up 2 crucial wickets in 4 overs by conceding 26 runs.
The middle order of the team seems to be an area of concern. The management would love to get rid of the problem and prepare a strong middle order that can perform at every stage. The team doesn’t have much to worry about and will get better with games.
