ENG vs AUS 3rd ODI: Having won the first two games of the five-match ODI series, Australia would look to seal the series against England with a win in the third game, scheduled to take place on Tuesday at the Riverside Ground in Chester-le-Street.
Australia registered comprehensive wins in both games. A 7-wicket win against Harry Brook and Co. was followed by a 68-run victory in the second ODI. The third game would be a do-or-die encounter against England if they have to save the series.
They have dished out below-par performances and how they bounce back from here remains to be seen.
Australia Team Review
Both Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc missed out in the first game but made their comeback in the next game. The duo combined to pick five wickets between them. Aaron Hardie went wicket-less in the first match and picked up two wickets in the next game.
Glenn Maxwell also played the second game. He couldn’t do much with the bat and scalped two wickets with the ball. Keeping in mind his all-round prowess, he is a must-have pick for your fantasy side.
Travis Head has been in brilliant form. He notched a match-winning century in the first game and you can expect another big score tomorrow. Skipper Mitchell Marsh also returned to the side in the second ODI and played a handy knock of 60 off 59.
However, experienced campaigners, namely Smith and Labuschagne have failed thus far in the series.
England Team Review
England needs their top order to give them a good start. Duckett has looked solid but would need support at the other end. Phil Salt is due for a big knock and it might come in the third ODI. Harry Brook also needs to step up to the plate.
Young sensation Jacob Bethell bat downs the order but remains a great pick to have in your fantasy team. Jofra Archer rested in the last game and it remains to be seen if he makes a comeback.
Besides, in the bowling department, Brydon Carse and Adil Rashid are handy picks.
ENG vs AUS 3rd ODI Today Match Prediction
Australia have outclassed England in all departments in the first two games of the series. England’s batting has potential but Australia’s bowling has been too good for them. Harry Brook and Co. are surely going to dish out an improved performance and beating Australia would still be a tough ask. We are backing Australia to win.
