T20I: England vs Australia at Cardiff - dillinger10 - 08-31-2015
England and Australia converge in Cardiff for a one off T20. Neither team has played much T20 cricket over the last 12 months - England have played just one T20 - beating New Zealand earlier this summer - while Australia have not played the format since last November.
Australia will start as firm favourites (4/9 odds) but England (7/4) will be buoyed by their thrashing of New Zealand in Manchester.
James Vince has been in sparkling form for Hampshire this year and I would like to see him rewarded with an England debut, although it is likely that England will stick with Roy and Hales at the top of the order with Moeen batting at three. With David Willey potentially batting at 9, England have an incredibly deep batting lineup.
More than anything I hope that this pitch is up to par as Glamorgan have struggled in recent months, preparing some shocking wickets, including the abandonment of a Royal London Cup match between Glamorgan and Hampshire due to a dangerous surface.

Both teams are good but my bet is on England.

Some really destructive hitting down the ground from Morgan too. This was a funny innings. Australia dominated the first powerplay, England thrashed out the runs over the next 10 overs and then Coulter-Nile and Cummins bowled exceptionally well at the end to restrict England to 182 when 200 was looking likely with Moeen and Morgan at the crease.

Willey gets Warner in the first over. He is an exciting young cricketer.

Watto unable to kick the ball away from his stumps and he is out bowled. Poor Watto. You have to feel bad for him. Just a horrible summer for him.
