excellent move, he doesnt look interested in t20 anyways. Aus also cant afford smith n marnus together in t20s. 

Works for both team n himself

Marnus doesn't plays T20s I think.  Only ODIs afaik

He’s a liability in T20s and he’d be doing a favour to Aussie selectors by opting out.

Did well in bbl & recent t20 blast. Very handy with ball as well. If smith is not going to play he is good replacement at #3 for Australia.

Didn't know he had picked up an injury

Will be interesting to see if GOAT can notch up 1000 runs in a series, has come close a few times that too in just 6-7 innings. And he loves piling on England, we are in for a treat later this year.

The individual in our team can only dream of carrying a team to victory unlike goat Smith. What a loser he is. 

 

He really fell off post 2019 badly. Even before 2019, he never quite helped india win in a pressure match even In tests.

Yup doing well in t20 blast to and picked up handy wkts in BBL.

He ll want to make an impression to get that IPL contract.

They were not winning T20 anyway. Moreover Ashes is a  contest for who is the third best.
