By IANS News December 07, 2023 • 12:52 PM View: 1282

T20 World Cup: Australia cricketer Matt Short has been named Adelaide Strikers captain for BBL|13 to become the sixth skipper of the men’s side.

After serving as Travis Head's stand-in last season, Short assumes the role permanently. He made his debut for Australia in T20I and ODI cricket after finishing the 2022–23 competition with 458 runs and 11 wickets.

Although there is competition for top-order batting spots with Head, David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, and Steven Smith, he will be vying for a berth in the T20 World Cup team next year.
