Australia are out to bounce back from a disappointing outing in the T20 World Cup and also look to India 2023.
Australia vs England | 17 November 2022 | Adelaide Oval | 03:20
To Win Match
Australia 8/13 | England 13/10
Questions are starting to be asked about transition at the top of Australian cricket with some of the regulars having been there for some time.
The stark absence of any fresh talent in the top order doesn’t alleviate the pressure on the likes of David Warner, Steve Smith and Mitchell Marsh.
The bowling unit is settled but there are a number of talents bubbling under in this field for Australia and there is less concern around their ability to bowl teams out.
Cameron Green is all set to be Australia’s most valuable player for the years to come and could be a player of the calibre of Ben Stokes or Jacques Kallis for Australia.
England have turned to experienced campaigners if not ODI regulars for this series.
James Vince gets another go down under and considering his BBL experience this is perhaps no surprise although there is a question about whether Alex Hales really needs to be rested.
England’s bowling attack is all about left-arm seam and the wrist spin of Adil Rashid.
The English have one of the trickiest attacks in world cricket to deal with and they do well in all conditions and are an underrated part of the Three Lions white ball successes.
A strong and confident touring side could just get one over on the hosts. Good value on England getting the job done at 13/10.
