Australia vs Bangladesh Match Prediction & Betting Tips, T20 World Cup 2021
Australia and Bangladesh meet on Thursday afternoon in Dubai at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Australia have two more games to play in the Super 12s with a fixture to come against West Indies on Saturday. This is the final match of the tournament for Bangladesh who will head home at the end of the game. Read on as we preview this fixture. The Group 1 match begins at 14:00 local time.
Australia were well beaten by England on Saturday but have already registered wins over South Africa and Sri Lanka. They should have more than enough to beat a weak Bangladesh side.
Bangladesh reached a new low in the 2021 T20 World Cup during their defeat against South Africa. However, they still have certain players putting in strong performances so they can not be completely ruled out.

Australia Team News & Playing 11
AUS Team News
Aaron Finch brought in Ashton Agar as a second spinner in the game against England last Saturday in place of Mitch Marsh. However, we expect to see Marsh return in this match with Pat Cummins most likely to make way after being taken for 14 in his only over in the clash against England.
AUS Key Players
- Aaron Finch - The captain took 49 balls to post 44 against England and hit only 4 boundaries. However, he had been short of runs and the knock will have given him confidence.
- Glenn Maxwell - The batting all-rounder is yet to scale the heights we saw during the UAE leg of the IPL. He is a world class white ball batter and could deliver a big score in this game.
- Adam Zampa - The leg-spinner was very impressive against Sri Lanka and has been a constant threat for Australia during this tournament.
Australia won their opening games of the tournament but were massively outplayed by England. A win in this game will mean three victories from four.
Australia Predicted Playing 11
David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Mitchell Marsh, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Marsh, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade (wk), Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood

BAN Team News
With Shakib Al Hasan out for the rest of the tournament, Shamim Hossain replaced him in the starting XI against South Africa. Nasum Ahmed also came in for Mustafizur Rahman but we expect the left-arm pace bowler to return to the team in this match.
BAN Key Players
- Liton Das - The keeper-batter was one of only two batters to make a score over 20 against South Africa. He has 68 runs from his last two matches.
- Mahmudullah - The captain has put in some good performances during the tournament and did make a half-century against PNG.
- Taskin Ahmed - The right-arm pace bowler gave South Africa plenty of problems on Tuesday. He took the wickets of Reeza Hendricks and Aiden Markram.
Bangladesh have not won a game since defeating PNG at the end of the First Round. They have lost their last four matches in the T20 World Cup.
Bangladesh Predicted Playing 11
Mohammad Naim (wk), Liton Das, Soumya Sarkar, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain, Mahudullah (c), Shamim Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman

🏆 Australia vs Bangladesh Prediction
Bangladesh looked very weary with the bat against South Africa but responded by showing some pride with the ball during the South Africa reply. They will want to show that their series win over Australia was not a fluke but we are predicting a win for Australia in Dubai.
