Battle begins b/w Australia and England
Today, the first NatWest ODI between Australia and England
is going to start at Headingley in Leeds. The
NatWest series 2013 holds five ODI matches. Here both teams looking to be good
and the squad’s have been refreshed in both sides. This series came after the
two T20 matches between both teams which end up with 1-1. Australia wants
to win this series after been disappointed by 3-0 defeat in the Ashes.
Australia
is going to be lead by Michael Clarke and Eoin Morgan to lead England.
Michael Clarke wants to make Australia
to put a good come back. Australia
is looking good in ODI than in test matches. England have relatively young
players in the squad and need to check their squad with the young players. This
could make the young players to make their long way in the team. According to England captain
Morgan, this series will built some good experience for the players for the
2015 Cricket World Cup.
Australia holds
very good ODI players. Three days before Australia
defeated Scotland
by 200 runs and had set their come back. In that match Finch made 148 and Shaun
Marsh made 151. Finch looks to be in good line with his mark of 156 in T20
international. In today’s match both the players are participating and want to
carry their form through this series.
At Headingley both the teams have faced four matches and
shared the winning credits by 2-2. Rather than the Headingley, considering the
total Head to Head matches held between Australia and England in England is 53
matches and both the teams equals with 25-25. And Overall matches globally is118
and Australia
tops the win with 67 and England with 47.
In England squad, considering the senior players, Kevin
Peterson and Jonathan Trott are back to this ODI series as Alastair Cook and
Ian Bell were at rest from this limited over matches. In Australia, one
of the senior player, Warner has been left out for the ODI series because of
his poor form. This series is going to be tough fight for both the teams. Australia needs to prove their come back after
some past disappointments whereas England looks a bit un-strengthen due
to the younger players in the squad. England is going to gain a good
experience and the young players in the squad will get a chance to make their
presence in the Cricket World Cup 2015. The match is going to start in few
minutes at 9:15 GMT (14:45 IST)
