AUS vs ENG Key Players

Jos Buttler

A lot of English Media’s attention will be on Jos Buttler this tournament. The last ODI World Cup was a disaster and his form has been a little edgy coming into this one. He still is in good knick but his level of control is far from what he is used to seeing.

Glenn Maxwell

Glenn Maxwell had a shocking IPL. He bowled alright but the batting returns were very poor. He has role to play for Australia and usually finds form in the big stage. Australia though will be hoping he gets some time in the middle as his form remains very important for their future in the tournament.
