Old rivals Australia and England meet each other in the white-ball series just 10 months after finishing up the high-intensity Ashes earlier in the year. A lot has changed since then, and both sides will use this series as a chance to get themselves ready for the next ODI World Cup, which is 11 months away.

Australia will be led by Mitchell Marsh as they seek to forget the miserable time they had in South Africa.

The hosts are without some of their key players, but the depth in Australian cricket is such that they can come up with different match winners.

England, on the other hand, are coming for the tour Down Under after their miserable showing in Pakistan. Harry Brook’s side won just one game during the recent tri-series.

Perth Stadium, Pitch Report

This venue has hosted four games so far, and the chasing side has won on three occasions. Captain winning the toss will want to bowl first, as in the last three games none of the sides batting first have been able to cross 200 runs.

The wicket will aid the pacers, and once the ball gets old, the spinners will come into the fray. Batting second will be easier as the ball will come onto the bat. The average first innings score here is between 160-180.
