Stoinis fails to find place in Aussie squad, Maxwell back
Despite an outstanding show in the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL), all-rounder Marcus Stonis has not included in Australia”s ODI and T20I squads for their upcoming tour of South Africa while Glenn Maxwell has been recalled.
Stoinis finished as the NNL”s 2020 highest run-getter with 612 runs at an impressive average of 55.63 in the league stage. Meanwhile, he also broke the league record for the highest individual score, belting an unbeaten 147 from 79 balls at the MCG last month, and was also crowned the Player of the Tournament.
“(Stoinis) was unlucky to miss out due to the makeup of the current top order,” Australia men”s national team selector Trevor Hohns was quoted as saying by the ICC.
