Young talent Phil Salt will enter England’s XI to replace Dawid Malan in the semi-final match against India on Thursday 10 November in the ongoing T20 World Cup. Malan suffered a groin injury last week against Sri Lanka and had to appear in court.
by daily mail, the left-handed player will miss the crucial confrontation after the scans return negative news. 26-year-old Salt has been warming the bench so far and is a backup like no other. However, whether he will get the opportunity to open innings remains to be seen.
Salt was not ranked 3rd in his career, so Jos Butler or Alex Hales may sacrifice their position for a better balance. Or he may be pushing for a new role because the opening pair is just starting to click. Even the versatile Ben Stokes can be promoted as an aggressive push on the bat.
