Sydney, May 26 -- Matt Short hopes his decision to turn his back on a state contract will open up overseas T20 opportunities that can help him win a permanent place in Australia's white-ball sides.
Short has linked up with the Aussie ODI squad for their three-match series in Pakistan beginning this weekend after playing three games for Indian Premier League strugglers Chennai Super Kings.
