MATCH PREVIEW
ENGLAND
- England does not need any extra motivation for this match against Australia but now that the stakes are high, it will be interesting to see how they turn up.
- Everyone expects England to win and they are playing at home, so it is understandable the amount of scrutiny they are under.
- There is also a sense of impending doom by a country that has seen its cricket team self-destruct on several occasions. Will the shock loss against Sri Lanka open up some of these old wounds?
- England has played a very high-tempo form of cricket ever since its disastrous 2015 campaign. Now, its entire team has been set-up to be aggressive from the start. This is a tactic that works well when the pitch is flat for batting and there is not too much riding on the outcome.

AUSTRALIA
- David Warner and Aaron Finch are in prime form for Australia and showing just how dangerous their side can be.
- Warner, Finch, Khawaja, and Smith are a very strong top 4. They look stronger than England at the moment and that is something that should scare all the other teams.
- Australia middle-order, there is no shortage of six-hitting power in this team either.
- Mitchell Starc, on the other hand, has just relied on fast toe-crushing Yorkers to get him the wickets.
- One of the few weaknesses for Australia in this tournament has been its team selection. They have refused to pick Nathan Lyon in the playing eleven but may want to re-consider that against England since they have struggled against spin.
