Australia
Usman Khawaja
Calm, experienced, and rock-solid at the top Khawaja is the man Australia looks to when they need to build a strong foundation.
Mitchell Starc
Give him the red cherry and watch him swing it dangerously at high speed. Starc under lights in Perth is a threat few can handle.
Travis Head
A game-changer in the middle order, Head doesn't hold back. If he gets going, runs come fast and pressure shifts in no time.
West Indies
Shai Hope
The elegant right-hander is the glue in the Windies lineup. If he settles in, expect classy strokes and long resistance.
Shamar Joseph
Young, raw pace with serious attitude Shamar can rattle top orders and bring the fire West Indies often thrive on.
Roston Chase
A quiet performer, but crucial with both bat and ball. His ability to step up when needed makes him a key player, especially as the pitch starts to turn.
