AUS vs BANG, T20 LIVE: Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood Cut Through Bangladesh Batting

T20 WC 2021, Match 34, AUS vs BANG: Watch this space and keep following the Live Score & Updates from Australia vs Bangladesh WC match.

Background

T20 World Cup: The mighty Australians are back in action today. They will face, perhaps, the weakest team in the entire competition: Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Tigers have lost all their four matches in the Super 12 stage. 

Australia, on the other hand, is very much in the fray for obtaining a place in the semi-final alongside England from Group 1. England has already qualified, thus, only one more team from Group 1 can qualify for the semis. South Africa is Australia's toughest rivals who are also looking in some brilliant bowling form. 

The match will be played at the Dubai International Stadium at 3:30 pm IST. 

Australia won the toss and decided to bowl first. This wasn't a very surprising decision from Aaron Finch as the teams winning the toss have decided to bowl first in this competition.
