ENG vs AUS 4th ODI: Pumped up England aim to level the series
England and Australia are once again gearing up to lock horns in the fourth ODI of the ongoing five-match series, scheduled to be held on Friday at Lord's, London. This is going to be an action-packed encounter as England aim to level the series, currently trailing 2-1.
England entered this series with a new-look squad, missing the services of their strong performers Jos Buttler, Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root. But, they lived up to the expectation by winning the third game in order to keep themselves alive in the series. After suffering defeats in the first and second games, England bounced back impressively in the third game, securing a rain-affected 46-run win.
Now, going into the fourth match, Australia will be looking to regain their momentum and seal a series-clinching win. Australia desperately missed their star spinner Adam Zampa in the third game as he had to sit out due to illness. However, Zampa is expected to return to the side to bolster their spin attack.
For England, the spotlight will be on their top-order batsmen. A strong start from batters will be crucial, while bowlers will also need to maintain pressure to help the side level the series.
England probable XI: Phil Salt, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Harry Brook (c), Jamie Smith (wk), Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell , Brydon Carse, Adil Rashid, Jofra Archer, Matthew Potts
Australia probable XI: Matthew Short/Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh (c), Steve Smith, Cameron Green, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Adam Zampa Sean Abbott, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood
