ENG vs AUS Preview
After a competitive T20I series that had a rather disappointing ending with the 3rd T20I game being washed out, both teams now shift their focus to the ODI series.
The news in the England camp is Jos Butler is yet to recover from his injury and is certainly ruled out of the series. Harry Brook has been announced as the captain of the side. Jofra Archer returns to ODI cricket after 18 months. Youngster Jacob Bethell who impressed with a 44 run knock in the 2nd T20I is set to make his ODI debut. Ben Duckett returns to the ODI squad and is likely to open alongside Phil Salt, while Will Jacks to come at number 3.
The World Champs Australia have rested their regular skipper Pat Cummins and Mitchell Marsh will lead the squad. Mitchell Starc returns to the squad, Ben Dwarshuis, Sean Abbott are the other two seam bowling options. The Aussie might bench Jake Fraser McGurk and either of Dwarshuis or Abbott might make it to the final XI.
Head to Head Record – England and Australia have faced each other a total of 156 times in ODIs. Australia has dominated England by winning 88 matches whereas the latter has won 63 matches. In the last five head to head matches, Australia has remained unbeaten.
