AUS vs ENG Live: Toss up between Warner and Maxwell to keep wickets against rivals England – Apart from Warner, all-rounder Glenn Maxwell was also seen doing wicketkeeping drills before the virtual knockout match against England. The all-rounder had a lengthy indoor session, wherein he only was doing catching practice with gloves. It remains to be seen who dons the gloves for the important clash. For the unreserved apart from Wade Australia does not have any other specialist wicketkeeper in their 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup 2022.
Josh Inglis was the second wicketkeeper, but he was ruled out of the showpiece event due to a freakish golf injury.
