ENG vs AUS 2020 - 2nd ODI Fantasy Preview

In the 1st ODI, Australia was rocked early on but they made a good recovery to post a little less than 300 which was good enough to register a 19-run victory and start the series with a victory. The England innings followed the same route which included early wickets and a late recovery by the middle order because like the on-air commentators said, this is one of the best tracks in the country right now!

Yes, we’re playing at the same pitch as the last game and the toss plays a vital role here, with most wins coming for the team batting first here. It’s a good batting track which has plenty of assistance for the spinners as well, so pick players accordingly.

Numbers

Last 5 ODIs head to head, England leads 3-2.
Last 7 ODIs at this ground – all have been won batting first.
Marnus Labuschagne – 2 fifties, 1 century in just 7 ODI innings.
Jason Roy – 6 single digit scores in his last 8 innings.

England

At the top of the order, Jason Roy is back from injury and he’s not had a fifty across formats in 12 innings now, so we’re skipping him but we’ll pick his opening partner Jonny Bairstow who now has two consecutive fifties against Australia after a couple of early failures in the T20s. In the last game, captain Eoin Morgan only scored 23 but he’s in great form and has 409 runs at this ground in 11 previous ODIs here.

With the ball, Adil Rashid bagged 6 wickets in 3 T20Is and now continued his fun in the ODIs where he picked 2/55 in the last game and someone like him can be useful with the bat if given the chance as well, so we’re picking him in our ENG vs AUS 2nd ODI fantasy team. With the ball, Chris Woakes will be looking for better numbers after a great Test outing against West Indies and Pakistan earlier this season.

Australia

We spoke about Rashid’s influence but let’s not forget the Aussie leggie Adam Zampa who bagged a 4-fer in the last game and helped Australia get the W. He can be a real game changer and we’re not leaving him out of our side. One of the most under-rated Aussie pacers, Josh Hazlewood picked 3/26 in 10 overs in the last game including 3 maidens and he has a total of 8 scalps in his last 4 ODIs alone!

At the top of the order, Aaron Finch had a failure when he scored 16 in the 1st ODI but he’s a good pick for your Nostragamus (Use “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy team because he scored 125 runs in 3 T20s and has a good record against England in general. Being pushed up the order, Marcus Stoinis played a handy knock of 43 and we’ve seen in the past that he tends to take the top order roles more seriously as a batsman!
