Australia vs England, 3rd T20I: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, match prediction and live streaming details
Australia will look to regain some momentum ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 when they lock horns with England at the Manuka Oval in Canberra on Friday, October 14. The home side have already conceded the three-match series, losing their first two games.
England, who landed on Australian shores after a series win against Pakistan, continued their domination against the reigning T20 champions. The batters have put runs on the board and have been backed equally well by the bowlers.
Despite wrapping up the series with one match to go, Jos Buttler and Co. will want Ben Stokes to return to form ahead of the showpiece T20 event. The ace all-rounder, who has had limited appearances in the shortest format of the game, managed only 16 runs in the first two games.
Josh Hazlewood says a free mindset and continuing to play his own game will help star allrounder Glenn Maxwell rediscover his best form for the #T20WorldCup

The Aussies, on the other hand, have failed to chase down targets on both occasions. Aaron Finch and Co. are yet to fire as a unit and will hope to come out all guns blazing to get the ball rolling before the mega T20 competition.
