Australia vs Bangladesh prediction

Bangladesh should see this is a free-hit following their crucial six-wicket win over Netherlands to begin the tournament. That gives them leeway heading into a contest that the Aussies should win comfortably when taking into account their excellence across all faces of the game compared to the Tigers.

Australia looked hugely impressive in their victory against South Africa and aren’t expected to take their foot off the gas pedal here. As a unit, they are far ahead of Bangladesh in terms of high-level international experience and cricketing development. It would be among the biggest shocks in the tournament’s history if they were to lose this.
