Australia are set to host England in the first T20I match at Perth Stadium on Sunday. Australia returned to winnings ways with a 2-0 home series win against West Indies in the recent T20Is after losing the three-match series against India last month. The star all-rounder Marcus Stoinis is set to return from his injury and this is his last chance to impress ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022 starting on October 16.

Management has decided to rest their pace trio of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Mitchell Starc alongside Glenn Maxwell and Adam Zampa for the first match.

England beat Pakistan in the seven-match away T20I series by 3-4 despite missing their senior key players. They are further boosted by the return of the star batter and captain Jos Buttler for this series. Ben Stokes and Liam Livingstone also return to the squad but the latter is not available for the first match. The star pace bowlers Chris Woakes and Mark Wood are also part of the sqaud which gives them an upper hand on Perth's bowling-friendly pitch.

AUS vs ENG Pitch Report:

The pitch at Perth Stadium has a bowling-friendly surface for white-ball cricket. Pakistan were restricted to only 106 runs while batting first and Australia managed to chase the target without losing a wicket in the only T20I match played here in 2019. Pacers are likely to dominate this fixture and with Australia's pace trio rested, England have the upper hand.

AUS vs ENG Probable Top Performers:

Probable best batter:

Jos Buttler:

English captain missed all seven matches against Pakistan despite returning from the injury. He is now fully recovered and is available for all three matches against Australia. Buttler is in sensational form this year with 863 runs in 17 IPL 2022 matches and 203 runs in just five The Hundred 2022 innings before getting injured in August. 

Probable best bowler:

Mark Wood:

The star pacer made a successful comeback from his injury on the Pakistan tour. Wood was restricted to only two matches due to his recent recovery but he managed to consistently bowl above 150 kmph against Pakistan. He took six wickets in just two matches and will be more dangerous on Perth's bowling-friendly pitch on Sunday.
