The series is sealed but the last game still holds a lot of value. After two close games, both teams gear up for their final chance to experiment before the World Cup. Australia has some issues with regards to their fielding and the form of one of their best ball-strikers, Glenn Maxwell. Dropped catches haven’t helped them at all as they gave a handful of lives to Dawid Malan and Moeen Ali, who ran away with the game in the first innings. England are not far from issues themselves. Their use of Ben Stokes with the bat is a question. He has not found his rhythm but is seen as a player in the top four. His batting has not been good, but his bowling and fielding are top notch.

Venue: Canberra
The weather is clear during the AUS vs ENG fixture
The Canberra track is normally pretty helpful for bowlers. With dry weather there should be some spin in the track as well, Batting second is still a better option.
David Warner, Aaron Finch, Mitchell Marsh, Marcus Stoinis, Glenn Maxwell, Tim David, Matthew Wade, Pat Cummins, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc
Jos Buttler, Alex Hales, Dawid Malan, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Mark Wood, Adil Rashid, Reece Topley, David Willey
Dawid Malan always tends to go a touch unnoticed in the line-up. He keeps providing some nice scores but always tends to be playing for his spot, given the competition around and lack of flashiness in the game. Time again though, he gets the job done as he did in the second T20I, and remains a top batter in the format. He is England’s most consistent number three without a doubt, and could play a huge role from the shadows.
Glenn Maxwell’s numbers continue to worry. The runs are missing and he has not been spending much time out in the middle as well, getting out early rather than taking his time. With one game left, Australia will hope he spends some time out in the middle, to get his rhythm back and find some scores.

Both games have been close, but with Australia struggling to field well and failing to penetrate with the ball, England should find an easy way to complete a successful whitewash.
