Australia got its United Kingdom tour off to the perfect start last week, securing a 3-0 series whitewash over Scotland in Edinburgh.
Mitchell Marsh’s side cruised towards victory in the series opener before wicketkeeper Josh Inglis and all-rounder Cameron Green starred for the tourists over the weekend.
Australia’s attention turns swiftly towards the next three T20s against England, the first of which gets underway in Southampton on Thursday at 3.30am AEST.
JAKE FRASER-MCGURK – 3
16 runs at 5.33
HS 16, SR 69.56
Fraser-McGurk’s maiden T20I series didn’t go to plan, with the young Victorian registering two ducks against Scotland last week.
The 22-year-old couldn’t find the middle of his bat in Edinburgh, but he was an absolute gun in the field.
TRAVIS HEAD – 8
92 runs at 30.66
HS 80, SR 248.64
Head helped shatter the T20I record for most runs in a Powerplay during the series opener against Scotland, combining with captain Mitchell Marsh for a brutal assault at The Grange.
The South Australian was tamed by Scottish seamer Brad Currie in the following two matches, but he still contributed a stunning one-handed grab at short fine leg during Saturday’s dead rubber.
MITCHELL MARSH – 7
70 runs at 35.00
HS 39, SR 200.00
The Australian captain showed promising signs with the bat after a disappointing T20 World Cup campaign in the Caribbean.
Marsh offered a glimpse of his destructive best in the series opener, but didn’t convert either of his starts at The Grange into fifties.
CAMERON GREEN – 9
