The 34th fixture of the T20 World Cup 2021 sees Australia take on Bangladesh at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on November 4 (Thursday). The match is scheduled to begin at 3:30 pm IST.

Teams Status

Australia

Australia are one of the two teams chasing the second semi-finals spot from Group 1 behind England. They currently sit in third place below the league leaders and South Africa but can bridge the gap tomorrow.

While a win over Bangladesh will bring them level on points with the Proteas, it may still not be enough to put them in second place just yet, as their run rate (-0.627) is inferior to South Africa’s 0.742.

The Aussies’ chase of the second spot says a lot about their campaign where they have largely been forgotten amid Pakistan’s crazy run in Group 2 and England’s demolition jobs in their own group.

Last time out, the five-time ODI champions were beaten in the T20I version of the Ashes. An insipid batting performance was the root cause of their eight-wicket defeat.

Bangladesh

Bangladesh have been as abysmal as anyone in the main round of the World Cup, so far losing more matches (4) than everyone else.

Their campaign has been over for quite some time and now they’re just going through the motions.

In their last game, they got absolutely annihilated by South Africa, who bundled them out for a mere 84 and earned a six-wicket win.

The Tigers, tamed and maimed, now have the option to either try out new talent in the last game they’ve left or go for an upset, which they know isn’t likely.

Tipster’s Angle

Tip: Aaron Finch to score more than 23.5 overs @ 1.87

Aaron Finch is the captain of this team, he scored 44 and 37 runs in his last two innings and the only time he played a T20I against Bangladesh, in 2014, he scored 71 off 62 balls. That’s a half-decent blend of statistical nuggets and general information that supports our hunch of Finch playing a captain’s knock, leading by example, and doing all those good things for his side. The odds and the play have been sourced from Dafabet.

Tip: Mushfiqur Rahim to score more than 18.5 runs @ 1.87

Bangladesh runs machine Mushfiqur Rahim has been a bit quiet of late, with scores of a duck and eight in his past two matches. He averages 44.50 against Australia over four matches, and that coupled with his recent barren run makes it our prime candidate to get back among the runs in this game. A measly 18.5 runs is all we ask of him. The odds and the play have been sourced from Dafabet.
