Australia T20I skipper Aaron Finch set to return in his usual opener's slot

PERTH: Australia T20I skipper Aaron Finch has confirmed he will return as opener in the two remaining T20Is against England and the ICC T20 World Cup at home, following the 35-year-old dropping to No.4 in a couple of matches to give young allrounder Cameron Green a few opportunities at the top. The 23-year-old Green, did impress in the away series against India, slamming two half-centuries but he has since failed to notch impressive scores in the two-match series against the West Indies and the opening tie of the three-match series against England on Sunday. The tall allrounder could only manage a single as Australia lost the match by eight runs in Perth on Sunday.

Finch said Green was given the opportunity to open the batting to prepare the team for any exigency that might arise during the T20 World Cup. (IANS)
