Nathan Ellis ready to step up as Australia's T20I bowling spearhead in Scotland

Ellis to lead Australia's attack in absence of Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood

Uncapped quick eager to prove his worth on international stage

Nathan Ellis is poised to spearhead Australia's bowling attack in the upcoming T20I series against Scotland, with the likes of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood all rested. The uncapped quick has been in impressive form for the Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League (BBL), taking 19 wickets in 11 matches at an average of 16.58 and an economy rate of 7.47.

Ellis's selection is a testament to his consistent performances at domestic level. He has a knack for taking wickets at crucial moments, and his ability to swing the ball both ways makes him a dangerous proposition for batsmen. The 27-year-old is also a handy lower-order batsman, which could come in handy if Australia need some quick runs at the end of an innings.

Ellis is eager to prove his worth on the international stage, and he is determined to make the most of his opportunity in Scotland. He knows that he has big shoes to fill, but he is confident that he can step up and lead Australia's attack.
