England and
Australia square off in the 3rd ODI of the 3-matches ODI series at Old Trafford
on Wednesday.
Team
Preview
England
snatched the victory from the jaws of the defeat in the second ODI to level the
series 1-1 and took the series into the decider. England are the strongest side
at home and they haven’t lost a single bilateral ODI series in the last 4-5
years. After a disappointing batting in the 2nd game, the bowlers saved the
series defeat. They made a perfect comeback when Australia were 144/2, in the
chase of 232. Archer and Sam Curran delivered breakthroughs with some terrific
deliveries. England won the match by 26 runs and Archer declared man of the
match.
In the
opening game, Australia won by 19 runs after a fighting knock of Sam Billings.
Both sides have some slight concerns but England have more as they made errors
in both games. Australia will see Steve Smith at top-order and Stoinis might be
dropped. Morgan will go with the same eleven. The decider game would be more
thrilling as the Old Trafford is providing decent cricketing conditions.
Pitch
Report
Old
Trafford, Manchester is offering help to spinners in the game, as we saw with
Zampa and Rashid. It’s a good batting track if batsmen avoid unwanted errors
against the new ball and the spin. Chasing might be tricky so batting first is
an ideal call. The weather is pretty
good in Manchester on Wednesday, a perfect ODI conditions.
