There are not a lot of times when we say that the once ‘mighty’ aussies are dominated in a series. But this statement is more true than ever. Out of the 7 ODI’s played by the Australian Cricket Team, they have managed to win only 1 and lost the other 6. Once again they will walk onto the field to take on the team responsible for all their miserable results in the ODI’s England. The 3rd match of the England Vs Australia 5-match ODI series 2018 will be played at Trent Bridge, Nottingham on 19th June 2018. The visitors will look to stay alive in the series while the Englishmen will want to claim the winners medal as soon as possible.
The Ground
Team fielding first at Trent Bridge holds the edge. We are excluding the 1 abandoned and 2 tied cricket match played at the ground. Apart from those, in the other 39 matches, 22 times the team batting second has won. Therefore, it won’t be a surprise if either captain wishes to bowl first after winning the toss.
The Teams
England
England are again likely to miss the services of Captain Eoin Morgan. He’s out with back spasm. However, England did not seem to miss him as they posted a total of 342. Stand-in captain Jos Buttler is in the form of his life. The bowling unit has found a right mix with the trio of Liam Plunkett Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid claiming 17 wickets between them in the first 2 matches. Complimenting Buttler is Jonny Bairstow who’s also been in good touch. Joe Root will be looking to make a big score after being quite in the series.
Australia
2018 is perhaps not the year the Kangaroos would want to remember. Fresh form a global-shaming ball tempering scam, the Australian’s are made to swallow their pride every single match. They lack consistency. Shaun Marsh and Glen Maxwell have showed a bit courage. Andrew Tye is the most impressive of the bowlers. Tim Paine too has a good record at Trent Bridge. Australians need to perform as a team and need to complement each other. With Justin Langer and Ricky Ponting in their coaching staff, the team has plenty of insights on the winning mentality. If luck favors the Australian’s a bit, we are in for a great contest.
The Prediction
Even though everyone is favoring the English side, our prediction is that Australians are bound to put up a strong fight. The team from down-under is expected to go all out. This can either make the match turn completely in their favor or vice-versa. Still, we would like to take our chances and our prediction for England Vs Australia 3rd ODI 2018 is for Australia to Win.
