Aaron Finch’s Australia will take on West Indies in the second and final game of the two-match T20I series at the Gabba in Brisbane on Friday (October 7). The hosts won a thrilling first game against Nicholas Pooran’s side by three wickets and will be looking to seal a series win at the Gabba.
Australia may not field their best playing eleven till the ICC T20 World Cup 2022, as the defending champions have their eyes set on the business end of this tournament. Skipper Aaron Finch has suggested that his stay at number four could be a short one despite him playing a match-winning knock in a thrilling first T20I against West Indies on Wednesday.
