Top 5 Australian batsmen with the most ODI runs vs England

The third T20I between England and Pakistan in Manchester was a humdinger of a clash, and in the end, the ‘Men in Green’ held their nerve to defeat England by 5 runs. And with that, the three match T20I series resulted in a stalemate, with both the sides winning a match each with the first T20I being washed out.

England will now gear up for their next big series, against arch rivals Australia. The Aussies will play 3 T20Is and as many ODIs against the English side. The kangaroos are a side filled with match winners and this limited-overs series between the two heavyweights promises to be a mouth watering affair.

The Aussies, captained by Aaron Finch, will look to topple England in their own den when the limited-overs series gets underway.

With that being said, let us take a look at 5 Australian batsmen with the most runs against England in ODI cricket.

5. Aaron Finch

The fifth place is occupied by the current Australian skipper Aaron Finch. The big-hitting right-hander has always loved the England bowling attack and has scored 1,253 runs against them. He averages a healthy 50.12 against the English side and has also scored as many as 7 hundreds against them.

Out of the many three-figure scores that the Aussie notched up against England, his 135 at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground in the 2015 World Cup definitely tops the list. In a pressure encounter, Finch ripped apart the England bowling attack in his 128-ball-stay to enable Australia to defeat their opposition by a massive margin of 111 runs.

Finch will look to continue his good run of form against the hosts when he pads up against the England side in the first ODI on 11th September 2020.
