Australia will clash with Bangladesh in match 34 of the 2021 edition of the T20 World Cup. Australia is currently placed third in the points table and in Group 1. They have won 2 out of the 3 matches that they have featured in. Australia would want to get back to winning ways at the expense of Bangladesh, who have been miserable in this Super 12 phase. They head into the game as the clear underdogs, but the conditions on offer could well be tricky for Aaron Finch and the company if Bangladesh hit their stride.
David Warner has finally shown signs of dusting off the phase of his poor form. He was brilliant in the match against Sri Lanka and if he gets going, he will pose a real problem for Bangladesh in the powerplay overs.
