Now, I already have Moeen Ali in my side for this game.

Steve Smith and Joe Root would walk into my eleven. Root has carried England’s batting all through this tournament, providing them with the perfect sheet anchor role all through. He has been pacing the innings to perfection and helping the others play around him. Get him in!

Steve Smith is Australia’s best batsman at the moment. David Warner hasn’t been able to find his touch this Champions Trophy, failing to get off to quick starts both for himself and his team. So, there is a lot of onus on Smith to take Australia forward and knowing how he approaches these big games, he should be able to pull through. Get in the big players in the big games, do not experiment too much at this stage.

I would be going in with one more transfer for this game and that would be one from Mitchell Starc and Ben Stokes. I would get in Starc if Australia bowl first and Stokes if England bowl first. Stokes gives me more balance as he’ll be providing me with a dual scoring opportunity so I am a little more tilted towards him but I would still go in with the toss trick, as Starc could run through an opposition on his day.

Batting Star: Joe Root/Steve Smith(whoever bats second)

Bowling Star: Mitchell Starc/Ben Stokes(whoever bowls first)
