Maddinson who has played two T20Is for Australia till now made his international debut against India in the year 2013 where he came to prominence after scoring 34 runs in just 16 balls he played but he had to wait for more than one year for another opportunity. Finally, after a period of 13 months, he got the second opportunity in his home country in a contest against South Africa but there he could just score 4 runs. From then he is knocking the doors of the national team but due to the presence of the talented bunch of players already present in the squad, he is not able to not been able to get a recall.

Guptill played a total number of 7 games in this season and scored 164 runs which included one-half century against T&T Riders.
