Australia vs Bangladesh ODI World Cup

This could be an academic game in the ICC ODI World Cup as Australia and Bangladesh have very little to play for. This match #43 will be played at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday in what is the last day match of the tournament.

Australia are guaranteed a spot in top-three and a clash against South Africa in the semis. Bangladesh on the other hand, are likely to finish eighth even with a loss here, unless the Netherlands defeat India in their last match. I am backing the Aussie openers to come good and pick up some scoring form ahead of the semis.

Australia have posted the highest opening partnership in 3 of their last 4 matches, excluding one tie (ODIs)

Head to Head

There have been 21 ODIs between Australia and Bangladesh so far with Australia winning 19. Bangladesh won just one, while the other ended without a result.

In the World Cups, the record is 3-0 in favour of Australia with one match having no result.

Australia Form

Australia are 3rd in the points tally with 12 points from eight matches. They are guaranteed to finish either 2nd or 3rd along with South Africa, which means they would play each other in the last-four.

The Aussies have won their last six matches after starting the tournament with consecutive defeats – against India and South Africa. They would want to end the group stage on a high to take some momentum into the top-four.

David Warner (446 runs) has been consistent with the bat for Australia, while Adam Zampa (20 wickets) has been extremely effective.

Steve Smith sat out Australia’s previous game and it remains to be seen if they risk him ahead of knockouts. In case he plays, it could be Marnus Labuschagne making way.

Bangladesh Form

Bangladesh are 8th in the points tally with four points. In the race to top-eight and a chance to play in the Champions Trophy, Bangladesh seem to have confirmed their spot.

The Tigers will be looking over their shoulders to see if the Netherlands beat India and make this top-eight finish interesting. That looks a tough proposition at the moment and Bangladesh will fancy their chances.

For their final hurrah of the tournament, Bangladesh will hope Mahmudullah (296 runs) has been a surprise package leading from the lower middle-order. There hasn’t been a bowler of consistency for Bangladesh, with only Mehidy Hasan and Shoriful Islam taking 10 wickets.

Captain Shakib Al Hasan is ruled out with a finger injury, which could mean a game for Mahedi Hasan.

Verdict

Australia v Bangladesh - World Cup

On paper, there isn’t much context left for this match as Australia have qualified for the semis and Bangladesh are near-certainties for a top-eight finish. Yet, neither team would like to lose – Australia to maintain their momentum and Bangladesh to end the tournament on a high. The match could still be won or lose in the opening exchanges and I am backing Australia to boss those.
