BAN vs AUS 1st T20I Match Preview

Bangladesh:

After a long away tour against Zimbabwe, Bangladesh will be playing 5 T20I games against Australia at their home. They won their last series comfortably against Zimbabwe by 2-1.

They will be without their senior players Mushfiqur Rahim and Mustafizer Rahman as the former has kept him unavailable for this series and the latter is expected to miss the first two games owing to his ankle injury.

Liton Das and Tamim Iqbal are also unavailable for this series. Mahmudullah will lead the side in the absence of their regular skipper. The Bangladeshi team looks a bit weak on the paper and players like Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah need to lead from the front in order to win this series. Shakib was brilliant in their last series against Zimbabwe and will look to replicate his performance in this series as well.

Australia:

The Aussies did not have a great time in the Caribean after losing their last series against Windies by 4-1. They are already without their main players but will now also be without their regular skipper Aaron Finch who will miss this series because of his knee injury. Matthew Wade will lead the side in his absence and will have to play a great role with the bat as well at the top.

Their bowling looks very strong compared to their batting and the bowlers are expected to play a crucial role in this series. Their spinner Adam Zampa will be vital with the ball on the Asian tracks. Josh Philippe is expected to open the innings alongside Ben McDermott. Wade has hinted that he would be batting lower down the order as he is expected to play that role in the World Cup.

Mitch Marsh was excellent in the last series against West Indies both with the bat and ball and will be their key man in this series as well. Alex Carey will bat in the lower middle order and will do the finishing duties for the team. Though the Aussies are without their main players they still look like a better team on paper compared to Bangladesh. Both the teams will look to try new combinations ahead of the World Cup later this year.
