India vs Australia 2017: 5 Australian players to watch out for

#4 Nathan Coulter-Nile

England v Australia - 1st Royal London One-Day Series 2015
Coulter-Nile is seriously quick

Nathan Coulter-Nile, when fit, is one of the world's leading pacemen and in the absence of Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood, could form a potent new-ball pairing with Pat Cummins.

It will be up to him to rattle arguably the best top order in the game in Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Coulter-Nile is quick and has a mean short ball about him - the perfect ingredients to trouble the Indian batsmen.

Moreover, he knows how to bowl on Indian pitches, having played a major role in KKR's run to the semi-finals in IPL 2017.

Add to that his prowess with the bat and he all but walks into the Australian line-up.
