England may choose Phil Salt:-

If Malan is not available, England can opt for Phil Salt. “As soon as I got to know that the World Cup is in Australia, I was smiling from ear to ear. Good cricket shots will be important here I know.

Hitting through the line is what I do in every format. This is just an extension for me. I like to play on this ground. It makes me feel at home.
