ENG vs AUS: Captains’ Thoughts

Jos Buttler

“We will bowl first. A little bit tacky, should get better as the game goes on, we'll have to bat better. Had some time away from the game which was nice, and then back to practice. Playing against Australia is always good, plenty to play for, some pride and there's a Champions Trophy place to secure. Same team for us.”

Pat Cummins

“We were batting actually, so not fussed about losing the toss. Our opening batters are looking good, Stoinis and Cam Green come into the XI in place of Maxwell and Marsh. This clash always has a bit of spice, a great time to play them and I'm looking forward to it.”
