ENG vs AUS: 3 Key Player battles to watch out for in the First T20I

ENG vs AUS: England will begin their summer in the shortest format of the game, as they take on Australia who are on their European tour, as they first played the 3-match T20I series against Scotland.?

Though the first game seemed to be a mockery, the following games saw the hosts give tough competition. However, Inglis scored a T20I ton, Australia?s fastest of just 43 balls while Cam Green emerged as a top priority all rounder for the Men from the Kangaroo islands. 

The first T20I marked the debut of several new players, yet let's line at the 3 biggest Player battles from either sides: 

Phil Salt vs Josh Hazelwood

The English stand-in skipper has been their best batter for England and he is to emerge as the top batter in absence of their skipper Buttler. The opening batsman will play a very vital role in the powerplay, and to resist this brutal force of England batting they comprise experienced pacer Hazelwood. 

Hazelwood?s acute line and length often makes him tough for a batter like Salt to show aggression on.  

Travis Head vs Jofra Archer

Australia's best T20I batter and the top ranked ICC T20I batter, Travis Head has produced many special innings. His exceptional batting against Scotland where he broke numerous records is what has sent a message to the English bowlers. 

England ace pacer Jofra Archer will be the obvious quick who can help get rid of the aggressive batter. Archers seam position is what has been the weakest limb for Head.

Cameron Green vs Adil Rashid??????

Green has emerged as Australia?s best all-rounder, and recently has announced his stunning form as well in the series against Scotland. 

However, Green has often been troubled against spinners and Adil Rashid might hunt him down being one of England's finest bowlers in the hut.
