Players battle to Watch Out For

• James Vince vs Brett Lee
  The swing and pace of the new ball will pose a serious threat to Vince's smooth stroke play. This duel could make or break the team's big start or early wicket.
• Eoin Morgan vs Nathan Coulter-Nile
  Morgan's middle-over aggression may collide with Coulter-Nile's mix of change-ups and back-of-the-length options, particularly in the key area of the innings.
• Alastair Cook vs Peter Siddle
  The Test match aggressor/restrainer, this classic match-up is now played under white-ball conditions with Siddle looking to target Cook's traditional approach with his awesome keeping of line and length.
• Ben Dunk vs Ryan Sidebottom
  An explosive wicketkeeper-batsman, Dunk can turn a game on its head in a matter of overs! However, Sidebottom is known to use swing, variations in pace and use of angles to frustrate batsmen and may look to bring Dunk down during the field of play period (powerplay).
• Moises Henriques vs Liam Plunkett
  As the finisher, Henriques has the overwhelming chance to take Plunkett well past his efforts known for taking wickets with tailor-made plans in the death overs. This could be a deciding factor in the overall finish.
