With the series result sealed, England might look to experiment with Tom Banton back at the top of the order. Jos Buttler won’t play this match.

Joe Denly could get a chance in the middle order, while the addition of Sam Curran might offer the XI even more balance.

For Australia, Steven Smith, Alex Carey and Glenn Maxwell could do with more runs this series. All three will jet off to the Indian Premier League 2020 soon enough.

Bowling-wise, it’s probable spinners Ashton Agar and Adam Zampa will play key roles alongside the seamers again.

England v Australia 3rd T20I – Betting Tips and Prediction

This match has plenty to bet on beyond just the overall result. Here are three expert cricket tips to help you with your predictions.

Bet on England to Have Under 74.5 Runs after 10 Overs

It’ll be interesting to see if England stick with Jos Buttler and Jonny Bairstow at the top of the order. Or perhaps they will return Banton to the top, as was the case against Pakistan recently.

Maybe Buttler and Banton will open together and Bairstow will drop out of the XI. Either way, England are priced at 2.34 by Dafabet India to have under 74.5 runs after 10 overs.

A new combination at the top of the order could very well usher in this sort of steady start.

Choose Jordan to Be England’s Top Bowler

It has been good to see Chris Jordan in England colours again. He had been lost to international cricket for a while, but was playing in domestic T20 tournament around the world.

He has been tidy, if not spectacular. 10CRIC’s price of Jordan to be England’ top bowler at 5.0 could offer great value.

He is as reliable a seamer as Mark Wood and Tom Curran – and boasts plenty of variations to take advantage of the Southampton conditions.

Place a Bet on Stoinis to Carry Australia to Victory

Marcus Stoinis has Australia’s best average in the series so far. Even if he isn’t being allowed to open the batting, as was the case in the Big Bash League, he’s important in the middle order.

Stoinis is solid at coupling brute force with calculated hitting – and has quickly familiarised himself with this England bowling attack.

Bodog India have priced Stoinis to be Australia’s top batsman and the tourists to win the match at 11.0.
