#2 Australia's lacklustre pace attack

Daniel Worrall
Daniel Worrall has so far failed to impress in the ODI series

It is strange that the same set of pace bowlers, who were bowling for Australia A few months back, are now in the International setup together. We are talking about Daniel Worrall, Chris Tremain and Joe Mennie. The trio had so much success with Australia A that they were drafted in for this series, in place of Mitchell Starc, James Pattinson and Josh Hazlewood, who are out injured.

Sadly, they have not been able to replicate their performances at the International stage.

Worrall has conceded 128 runs in 16.2 overs in this series, without taking a wicket. Tremain, meanwhile, has been taken for 143 in 20 overs with just two wickets to show for. Mennie has not been picked after being carted around for 82 in 10 in Johannesburg.

The experienced duo of Hastings and Mitchell Marsh have also not been able to contain the run flow.
