– Maxwell looks safest captain choice considering his current good form and numbers at venue and H2H matches.
– Jos Buttler might be a decent VC choice especially while batting first as he has averaged above 30 in H2H matches.
– Can take Aaron Finch at the place of David Warner especially if Australia bats first.
– Dropped Jason Roy who might not go big in two consecutive innings considering his hit or miss chances.
– Taking punt on Malan and Bairstow who have good numbers against the opponent.
– Mills and Jordan are expected to bowl in death for England while Cummins and Hazlewood/Starc for Australia.

2. Aaron Finch(C)
3. Dawid Malan
4. Steven Smith
5. Glenn Maxwell

10. Mitchell Starc
11. Adil Rashid
– Dropped David Warner who doesn’t has satisfactory numbers against the opponent in more than 10 innings.
– Finch and Bairstow might be good C/VC choices considering their good numbers at venue and H2H innings.
– Dropped Jos Buttler as anyone from Starc or Cummins can take him early in the innings.
– Mitchell Marsh and Livingstone might be decent punts as they’re expected to bat in top six and bowl part time overs.
– Adil Rashid will be another good pick as he has taken wicket of almost every big player of Australia a couple of times.

1. Jonny Bairstow(VC)
2. Eoin Morgan
3. Aaron Finch
4. Dawid Malan
5. Glenn Maxwell
6. Marcus Stoinis
7. Liam Livingstone
8. Adil Rashid(C)
9. Chris Jordan/Chris Woakes
10. Pat Cummins
11. Tymal Mills
– Going heavy on England who aren’t the favourites to win it but has the potential to turn nature of a game at any moment.
– Adil Rashid looks an open captain choice in GL who has troubled almost every batter of Australia.
– Can take Jason Roy at the place of Eoin Morgan especially if England bats second.
– Expecting a top knock from Jonny Bairstow considering his numbers at venue and H2H matches.
– Marcus Stoinis can give decent fantasy points with the help of bat and ball.
– Expecting Morgan, Malan and Livingstone to come handy with bats in this big match.
– Take anyone from Moeen Ali or Livingstone since both are getting to bowl part time and batting at 4-5 down.
