Maxwell will be Australia's X-Factor for the match
All-Rounders- Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis
Marcus Stoinis
Glenn Maxwell awed spectators as he smashed his way to a blistering 113 off 55 balls. He showed tremendous character batting at No.4 and though Marsh and Khawaja are set to make a return, his innings shows that there might be shuffling in their batting order. Maxwell might have to roll over his arm at some point of time as Australia might want to play an extra batsman.
Marcus Stoinis will be another key player for Australia in the ODI series. He wasn't able to excel as an opener in the T20I series and a change in batting order is likely and he's expected to move back to the middle order. He will surely play some role with the ball as they will play in a Hyderabad pitch and Australia can't afford to play more than 3 specialist pacers. He will look to shine if given a chance with the bat early on in the innings.
