T20I tri-series: England vs Australia, Player ratings 

Ba
Marvelous all-round performance by Glenn Maxwell

Australia was looking to continue their dominance in the second match of the tri-series. The England cricket team looked threatening at the beginning however, good bowling displays by Glenn Maxwell and Ashton Agar led to their crumble in the middle overs.

Australia was absolutely dominating with the bat, as Maxwell and D' Arcy Short gave an amazing start to the innings, despite the fall of two early wickets. Maxwell continued his brilliant hitting, and scored a magnificent century to take Australia to victory.

Let us take a look at the player ratings.

England:

Jason Roy: 4/10

The England opener looked dangerous at the beginning. However, he soon lost his wicket to Kane Richardson. He scored 9 runs off 7 balls and would've hoped to stay for the rest of the innings.

Alex Hales: 6/10

Hales looked like a real threat to Australia, smashing four glamorous boundaries. He scored 22 runs off just 15 deliveries and was building a partnership with Dawid Malan. However, he lost his wicket to Agar's smart low catch.

Dawid Malan: 8/10

Malan was undoubtedly the best batsmen in the England camp. He scored a blistering half-century in just 36 balls, and was looking extremely focused. However, soon after touching 50, he tried hitting the ball to the boundary and picked up Andrew Tye at the deep square leg.

Eoin Morgan: 6/10

The English captain had a tremendous start to the innings. However, the team kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were able to manage a decent score of 155. With the bat, he scored a quick 22 off just 14 deliveries. He gave his wicket to Maxwell's clever bowling as it hit the top edge and went straight up to David Warner.

Jos Buttler: 3/10

England wicketkeeper didn't have the innings he would've hoped for and didn't look comfortable at the crease and lost his wicket to Marcus Stoinis.

Sam Billings: 3.5/10

Billings scored 10 runs off 9 balls. He didn't seem to accelerate his innings and was hesitant with the bat the entire time. He lost his wicket to Agar, getting a leading edge straight back to the bowler.

David Wiley: 7/10

The opening bowler took two the crucial wickets of Warner and Lynn. He was exceptional with the new ball and deserved the two wickets. However, he went for plenty in the succeeding overs, conceding a total of 28 in his three overs, picking up 3 wickets.

Chris Jordan: 5/10

Jordan didn't have the best day on the pitch with the ball, as he was wicketless and conceded 34 runs in his four overs. However, he played well with the bat and scored 16 runs off 11 balls towards the end of the England innings.

Adil Rashid: 6/10

He took a good wicket of the dangerous D'Arcy Short with a brilliant catch. However, despite bowling a good line, Rashid was hammered by Maxwell and conceded 30 runs in his four overs.

Tom Curran: 3.5/10

He was the most expensive bowler from the England dugout. Curran was hammered for 39 runs in the four overs he bowled. His bowling was erratic and the Australian batters could easily pick the line bowled by him.

Mark Wood: 6/10

In a match where most of the English bowlers struggled, Wood bowled well by conceding 26 runs in 3.3 overs. He also took the wicket of the powerful Stoinis.

Australia:

David Warner: 2.5/10

The bad run of form continues for the Australian skipper. He scored a beautiful four off the first ball, but got out immediately as he pulled the next ball to the deep square leg. However, as a captain, he had an amazing comeback after the start England had with the bat.

D'Arcy Short: 7/10

The highest scorer of the Big Bash continued his tremendous form in this match as well. He was extremely dangerous and was in his usual attacking best. However, he got out to Rashid's brilliant catch. He scored 30 off just 20 balls and gave a perfect start to the Australian innings and would've been upset for not completing the match.

Chris Lynn: 1/10

The big-hitting Lynn was outclassed entirely by Willey's brilliant swing bowling. He didn't affect the scorecard as he got out for a duck in two balls.

Travis Head: 2/10

A night to forget for the South Australian as he was smashed for 14 runs in an over with the ball. Apart from this, he played 13 balls and scored only six runs before losing the wicket to an inswinging yorker bowled by Willey.

Glenn Maxwell: 10/10

Undoubtedly Australia's best player of the night, Maxwell took three wickets in the two overs he bowled, conceding just ten runs. Moreover, he took the crucial wickets of the England skipper Morgan and Malan. With the bat, the all-rounder was back to his attacking best and targeted every bowler in the opposing squad. He scored a magnificent century and was the highlight of the game, winning the well-deserved Man of the Match award.

Marcus Stoinis: 5/10

The Australian all-rounder took the vital wicket of the dangerous Buttler. He was bowling a good line and length and conceded 16 runs in his two overs. His fielding was also exceptional as he saved a lot of runs on the boundary for his team.

Alex Carey: 5/10

The wicketkeeper didn't have much to do in the first innings except the easy stumping of Willey. With the bat, he scored five runs off five balls and supported Maxwell to finish off the innings.

Ashton Agar: 9/10

Similar to Maxwell, Ashton was equally good and bowled the perfect line and length in his three overs. He took two valuable wickets of Hales and Billings, both falling for his deceptive bowling.

Andrew Tye: 6.5/10

Tye was bowling a good line and length along with his slow bowling and was rewarded with the wicket of Curran. He finished his quota of bowling and conceded 28 runs in total.

Kane Richardson: 7/10

Similar to Tye, Richardson bowled four overs and conceded 27 runs. He also took the wicket of England opener, Jason Roy. He was quick and bowled the right line and length throughout his innings.

Billy Stanlake: 4/10

The Australian quick didn't have the best game as he conceded for 43 runs in his four overs.
