• Date – Wednesday, January 05, 2022
• Time – 5:00 AM IST
• Venue – Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney

AUS v ENG Match Preview:

Australia have opted to go with the same opening pair - David Warner and Marcus Harris. Only three players in the Australian team have scored consistently - Warner, Marnus Labuschagne, and Steve Smith. They will be the key in Sydney as well. 

Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc have been one of the most dangerous pairs bowling with the new ball. They give nothing to the batters and consistently threaten them with wicket-taking deliveries. Nathan Lyon could come into the game as the match progresses. 

There is no doubt England will bank on Joe Root to score. Dawid Malan has been the next best batter in this series for them. Jos Buttler will be a key in the middle order. 

Stuart Broad is back in the playing XI and will accompany James Anderson with the new ball. Mark Wood could be a game-changer.
