After India vs Pakistan game, MCG will host yet another rivalry game, England vs Australia. As of now, this clash between England and Australia is considered crucial as both the teams couldn’t afford to lose a game, as they both have already lost one each. Apart from their losses, both the teams seem so strong bench-wise. They have an equal number of match winners. So there is no doubt it will be a higher-level test for the squads and a feast for the eyes of the spectators.
MCG in night matches will have the best conditions for swing bowling. Since both teams have extraordinary speedsters, run-making isn’t going to be easy.

Captain: M Marsh
Since M Marsh has started bowling in this tournament, he is the best option we can go for a skipper. Big game player.
Vice-captain: J Buttler
Wicketkeeper: Jos Buttler
J Buttler usually has the habit of playing well in important games. And he is still in good touch.
Batters: M Marsh, D Warner, A Hales
D Warner and A Hales are the two openers. It’s a bit risky, but once they get settled, they will give their 100 per cent for the team. D Warner is a big game player.
All-rounders: G Maxwell, S Curran, M Stoinis, L Livingstone
G Maxwell and M Stoinis are two perfect all-rounders who can do both in A grade.
S Curran can be expensive and, at the same time, a good wicket-taker.
L Livingstone can be on at any time. When he goes off, the whole MCG will be ignited.
Bowlers: C Woakes, M Wood, J Hazlewood
