Captain Steve Smith and coach Darren Lehmann have had to field plenty of questions surrounding the reform of player payment methods by Cricket Australia, but the Baggy Greens, by now, will be keen to just let their cricket do the talking.

The reigning world 50-over champions open up their Champions Trophy campaign against New Zealand (June 2 at Edgbaston) before taking on Bangladesh three days later at the Oval.

Much of the focus, however, is on the clash with Australia (June 10 at Edgbaston) – which could well be a key determiner in Group A.

Sport360’s Stuart Appleby is joined by Alex Broun to discuss how Australia will fare in England.
