Transfers
Transfers Made: 4 | Transfers Remaining: 31
1) Trent Boult (BOWL) (NZ) - OUT | Adam Zampa (BOWL) (AUS) - IN
2) Shaheen Afridi (BOWL) (PAK) - OUT | Travis Head (BAT) (AUS) - IN
3) Rachin Ravindra (ALL) (NZ) - OUT | David Warner (BAT) (AUS) - IN
4) Logan van Beek (BOWL) (NED)- OUT | Joe Root (BAT) (ENG) - IN
Now, this is one of the best fixtures in this tournament, especially because this will be played on the same surface as the ENG-NZ match that kicked off the World Cup in fine fashion.
Right now, I am limiting myself to making four transfers, but despite having no players from this fixture, I am considering using 11 transfers here to play my 'Double Up' (2X) booster and managing my transfers later on.
While that's a call I'll take based on the pitch report and toss, for now, I'm backing Australia to win despite the absence of Glenn Maxwell and Mitch Marsh. Travis Head and David Warner were in terrific form against New Zealand, and at a venue where new-ball bowlers won't get much swing, they should dominate the England bowlers.
The ever-reliable Joe Root is the only batter I'm backing from England despite his recent failures. Lastly, Adam Zampa has a terrific record at this World Cup and against England. I expect him to wreak havoc once he gets the ball in hand.
