England v Australia 2nd ODI – Match Preview

Cricket fans could be treated to another hard-fought battle if previous meetings are anything to go by.

Australia have the better head-to-head record in ODIs having won more than 50% of the matches played. However, that record is slightly closer in English conditions.

Where: Old Trafford, Manchester, England

When: Sunday, 13 September 2020

Start time: 16:30 IST (12:00 GMT)

Pitch conditions: The pitch at Old Trafford is likely to offer something for everyone. It will certainly have enough to interest the spinners after yet more action at this venue. A slower surface that turns is likely again, but the pacers are not out of it.

Weather conditions: It is expected to be a dry and sunny day in Manchester. Clear skies at the start of play will see clouds come over towards the end. Temperatures are set to be around 20 degrees celsius.

England v Australia 2nd ODI – Team News

Jason Roy returned to the side for the first match after missing the previous T20I series with a side strain.

Jos Buttler took up a role lower down the order as Joe Root also came back in.

Eoin Morgan recovered from the dislocated finger that kept him out of that final T20 clash to lead the side again.

England are unlikely to make too many changes to their batting line-up for this one despite Tom Banton waiting in the wings.

Other possible bowling options include brothers Sam and Tom Curran, should England spot something in the pitch that would suit them.

Australia have the same 21-man squad to pick from for this.

David Warner departed early in the first ODI, but he and captain Aaron Finch are likely to start at the top of the order again.

Steven Smith missed the series opener and is in doubt for this one, too. Mitchell Starc might also miss out.

England v Australia 2nd ODI – Betting Tips and Prediction

Here are three expert cricket tips to guide you through this match. Our match predictions are based on the best cricket odds and years of experience.

Bet on both teams to score 275+ runs each

This happened in the first ODI and looks likey in the second, too. Conditions are good for batting, but not overly so. A score of around 290 could again be really competitive.

There were three half-centurions in the series opener – and Sam Billings tonned up. Should this all happen again, 22Bet’s price of 1.99 for both teams to score 275+ runs can come good.

Choose Zampa to be Australia’s top bowler

Leg-spinner Adam Zampa really impressed in the first ODI. He got a handle on conditions quickly and was key in stopping Jonny Bairstow from leading England to victory.

Zampa will be in action in the Indian Premier League next month, where we are expecting big things from him as well.

For now, he’s a really good pick with LeoVegas, who have priced him at 2.1 to be Australia’s top bowler in the second ODI.

Pick Warner to hit a 50

Opening batsman David Warner looked a bit out of sorts in the first match. He was promptly cleaned up by Jofra Archer.

But he is the type of character to learn from his mistakes and bounce back, especially against the old enemy.

Dafabet India have Warner priced at 2.44 to hit a half-century. It’s good value and well worth placing this bet.
