Australia’s uncapped players will get the opportunity to impress in the upcoming T20Is and ODIs

Mitchell Marsh, Australia’s new T20I captain and stand-in leader of the ODI side, has been “blown away” by his brief sightings of left-arm quick Spencer Johnson who will get his first taste of international cricket in South Africa.

Marsh expects all the uncapped players heading on the tour - there are four overall including Matthew Short, Tanveer Sangha and Aaron Hardie - will get the opportunity to showcase their skills, but it’s Johnson who is the most talked-about after his rapid rise through the game over the last nine months.
