Players in focus

His partner in crime in the BBL was D’Arcy Short who ended-up as the highest run-getter in the tournament with 637 runs from 15 innings averaging 53.08.
Josh Hazlewood will lead the bowling attack of Australia A. After being ignored from the World Cup squad, he must be willing to put up a good show. In his last 5 ODI’s he has taken 6 wickets.
Another medium pacer Sean Abbott is coming into this contest after a good first-class season. He went on to clinch 23 wickets from 4 first-class games with the best figures of 7 for 45.
