Short Eager To Cement His Spot In Australia’s T20I Team After Strong Show Vs England
Big Bash League: Australia’s top-order batter Matthew Short said he is eager to cement his spot as an opener in the T20I side after playing a strong knock of 41 off 26 balls in a match-winning 86-run opening stand alongside Travis Head in the series opener against England at Southampton.
Short, 28, slammed four fours and two sixes in his blistering knock to give Australia an early advantage, which was enough for them to get a 28-run win over England, and take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.
"I only found out last night. Obviously, with Davey Warner out, you sort of know that the spot's opened up. But then Jake Fraser-McGurk has been playing the last few games in Scotland, so you never know where you sit. But I'm glad I sort of took that opportunity and played my role to help the team with a win.”
