England vs Australia, 1st T20, Manchester, Live Streaming, Cricket Scores, ENG vs AUS
Captain Ricky Ponting’s face turned red when team England clinched the Ashes and Australia were left with no place to hide.
Post Ashes, they are still left with one opportunity to pick up their shattered performance and that will be the first Natwest Twenty20 match against the same archrivals England at Old Trafford on August 30, 2009.
However, the embarrassed and much criticized Australian skipper Ricky Ponting will miss the twenty20 matches, as he went on a short trip to his country. Ponting has also shared his thought of sharing the captaincy with his teammate Michael Clarke for the shorter version of the game.
Team England is certainly on the ninth cloud and will hope to prove the world that the Ashes have not come to them by luck and will so play to win the Twenty20 matches as well.
They will definitely take advantage of the deflated Australian side but considering the fact that this is the shorter form of the game it is difficult to predict the winner. The world knows Australia’s potential to make a strong come back.
So, yet another exciting match is on the cards and the Australians might come charging in this. Let us wait and watch.
