T20 World Cup: Won’t Be Ruling Ellis Out Of The Super Eight Conversation, Says Bailey On Australia’s Ideal 11
Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium: Australia’s chief selector George Bailey has insisted that pacer Nathan Ellis won’t be ruled out of the conversation when the side seeks to select its best playing eleven for the Super Eight stage of the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup.
With either of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood being rested from Australia’s Group B fixtures at some point in the tournament, Ellis has made a strong case for himself by picking four wickets in his three games, as Australia will have just a day’s gap between their Super Eight matches, with India and Afghanistan being confirmed as their opponents.
"Coming back to how we structure up two or three different ways … I certainly won’t be ruling Nathan Ellis out of that conversation. I think he’s got a fantastic skill-set. I think they (the bowlers) all work together really well. It’s a nice squad balance to have."
