Shukri: Aiden is a couple of games away from unlocking genius state

Shukri: Aiden is a couple of games away from unlocking genius state

Markram endured a lean T20I series, which the Aussies won 2-1 off the penultimate ball of the decider in Cairns on Saturday evening. The skipper’s contribution across the three matches was a paltry 31 runs at an average of 10.30.

It would be easy to brush Markram’s poor return by the way side had it been a once-off. But the 30-year-old has been searching for form since before last year’s T20 World Cup when he led the Proteas to a first-ever final.

In fact, his last T20I half-century was at the previous T20 World Cup back in October 2022 against India in Perth. He has walked to crease 31 times since without passing 50.
