This is a key game for Australia. They’ll definitely go hard and try to improve their NRR dramatically. Bangladesh on the other hand will try and get at least a consolation win.

Australia win the toss and opt to field. This exactly what they’d have hoped to do before the toss. They’ll now want to chase down a little target in really quickly to improve their NRR massively.
Yes, I hope the pitch will also play in their favour. Yesterday Scotland had three early wickets on this pitch against NZ.

Yeah. With a strong bowling attack, they should be able to restrict Bangladesh around or under 130 - 140 if the pitch behaves the same way.
Liton Das gone first ball. That’s a fantastic ball from Starc. Can’t do much if you get a first ball like that.
Yup, I remember you receiving one of those too

I would have kept Josh and Starc for 2 overs each on a trot. Not introducing Maxwell for the 3rd over

The second wicket’s gone in 2nd over. Is this going to be a very short game?
Me too, but they’ve got the 3rd wicket now! 
Well well well… Aron knows something I don’t 
Maxwell got a wicket too.

Looks like it! Maxi is just a magician these days
Four down before power play. Now going past 100 looks an uphill task
This is disastrous for Bangladesh. 5 down in 7th over!
Can they score more than 100 runs?

Looks like it’s going to be difficult…
Well it’s going to be over very shortly.
Finished in the 7th over. Utter dominance by Australia. Nice healthy NRR as well. They’re above South Africa in NRR and 2nd in the table now.
