Australia are set to host England in a three-match T20I series, starting at Perth Stadium on Sunday, October. Australia returned to winnings ways with a 2-0 home series win against West Indies in the recent T20Is after losing the three-match leg 1-2 versus India last month.
England, on the other hand, are coming to the sovereign nation after defeating Pakistan 4-3 in a seven-match T20I series. However, the Three Lions biggest concern would be that their win against Pakistan came in completely different weather, pitch and ground conditions than what they are likely to compete in at the upcoming T20 World Cup. In that regard, a run against the in-form old rivals Australia would be perfectly welcomed.
