Australia would like to get back to winning ways as they take on Bangladesh in their next match in the T20 World Cup 2021. The encounter is set to place at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Thursday (November 4). Both teams have had different campaigns so far this season and it would be interesting to see how this game pans out.

Having won two of their three games, the Aussies are third in the Group 2 points table. However, they suffered a humiliating eight-wicket defeat against England in their last fixture. Hence, it would be interesting to see how they’ll bounce back. Bangladesh, on the other hand, have had a tournament to forget. They are out of the semi-final race, having lost their first four games in the Super 12 stage.

Hence, they have nothing but pride to play for. Although the Aussies will take the field as firm favourites, they suffered a 4-1 defeat in the T20I series against Bangladesh earlier this year. Hence, Mahmudullah’s men would back themselves to give Australia a tough time.

Meanwhile, let’s look at important stats and numbers ahead of the 34th game of the T20 World Cup 2021:

Head to head: Australia are just a tad ahead of Bangladesh as far as the head-to-head record in T20Is are concerned. These two sides have met in nine T20Is before out of which, five games landed in Australia’s favour while Bangladesh won the other four times. As far as World Cup clashes are concerned, the head-to-head record is 4-0 in Australia’s favour.
