Team Analysis:
Australia:
Aaron Finch-led side had a horrific start to their T20 World Cup campaign as they suffered a shocking defeat against New Zealand. But defending champion bounced back strongly against Sri Lanka by registering a 7-wicket win over the Asian champions. Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell played fine innings on the day as both the middle-order batters ensured a maiden win for the side. Stoinis smashed 59-runs off 18 deliveries, while Maxwell made a 23-run contribution in the game.
David Warner has failed miserably in the first two games but can make a comeback on any given day. Pat Cummins is another terrific all-rounder in the squad who can be added to the Fantasy 11. Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis and Mitchell Marsh are the other two prolific all-rounders who could be considered for a place in the Fantasy side. Josh Hazlewood will be a trusted addition to the fantasy squad.
Probable playing XI:
David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Matthew Wade (wk), Pat Cummins, Ashton Agar, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood
Ireland:
Ireland will be high on confidence when they will take on Australia on Monday. Their historic victory over England will bolster their will in the ICC tournament. Andrew Balbirnie batted brilliantly against England as he scored 62 off 47 deliveries.
Meanwhile, Lorcan Tucker too played an important knock on the day as he scored 34 off 27 balls. Both batters should be considered for a place in the team, especially Tucker who is a wicketkeeper and can fetch points from behind the stumps as well. Curtis Campher will be a useful all-rounder in the squad and could be vital in the upcoming fixture. Joshua Little, George Dockrell and Barry McCarthy provide a great set of options from the bowling department.
Probable playing XI:
Paul Stirling, Andrew Balbirnie (c), Lorcan Tucker (wk), Harry Tector, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Gareth Delany, Mark Adair, Fionn Hand, Barry McCarthy, Joshua Little
