T20 blast final

Old Trafford T20I: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believes the upcoming Men’s T20I series decider at Old Trafford on Sunday will be an extremely intense affair, following England’s three-wicket victory in the second T20I held in Cardiff making scoreline stand at 1-1.

"It's more than ruthless now, it's 1-1 and it's Australia against England. I don't care what game it is, you want to win the series. Thinking about the sides, Archer comes back into mine and (Reece) Topley is probably the one that has to go."

"He's been a staple in that side for such a long time but with Carse being impressive maybe Topley has to go. Australia definitely have to bring Hazlewood back in, they can't get him back him quick enough, and there's two full-strength games in game three. Let's see who comes out on top," said Ponting on Sky Sports Cricket.
