Timeline
Historically, matches between Australia and Bangladesh have been marked by an impressive performance gap. But over the past several years, Bangladesh has made notable strides to close it more rapidly across all formats of cricket despite still trailing overall in ODI rankings; their improvement suggests they’re growing in confidence and poise to challenge established international sides, reflecting global cricket development as emerging nations compete with established powerhouses of sport.
On Thursday, June 20, two sides will face each other again in an essential Super 8 match at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia. Both have plenty to gain from a victory as it could give an early boost in terms of net run rate (NRR). Furthermore, this match offers players an invaluable chance to gauge nerves ahead of the World Cup tournament in England later in 2019.
Australia have made an impressive start to their campaign, winning three out of their four matches and finishing first in Group B. Australia have an excellent T20I record against Bangladesh having won seven of 10 meetings; their most recent defeat coming by 8 wickets at Dubai 2021.
Bangladesh will aim to improve on their subpar performances against Sri Lanka and South Africa, who they’ve struggled to take full advantage of with both bat and bowl in terms of exploiting opportunities created. Bangladesh must address their inconsistencies if they wish to advance past the group stage and progress to the semi-finals of this tournament.
Australian captain Mitchell Marsh will likely field the same team that met West Indies in their previous match: David Warner, Glenn Maxwell, Tim Paine, Marcus Stoinis, Matt Wade, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins will likely feature prominently again after taking an impressive three hat-tricks against South Africa and being honored as Player of Match for their efforts against Windies; Cummins was pleased with how his team fought back after an initially slow start and shared in Marcus Stoinis’ three hat-trick club alongside Stoinis! Cummins said that his hat-trick accomplishment was proudly shared among team mates as he took pride in joining Marcus Stoinis’ three hat-trick club alongside Marcus Stoinis’ own achievements; it had made him proud that Marcus joined his own three – which made for him becoming Player of Match alongside Marcus Stoinis himself!
Origins
Bangladesh Cricket Board manages and governs their national cricket team as the “Tigers”, representing Bangladesh at all international cricket competitions recognised by ICC such as Test and One Day International matches.
Bangladesh first competed in an International Cricket Council tournament when they participated in the 1979 ICC Trophy held in England, finishing third. Seven years later they made their ODI debut at the 1986 Asia Cup where they reached the quarter-finals before losing out to Pakistan. Bangladesh made history when they won 1997 ICC Trophy Malaysia to qualify for their inaugural Cricket World Cup held in England that same year and shocked everyone by defeating Pakistan by one of the greatest upsets ever witnessed at an ICC tournament.
Bangladesh was granted full ICC membership in June 2000, enabling them to play Test cricket for the first time against India at Dhaka in November 2000 – becoming only the tenth Test playing nation at that time. They struggled initially but in 2005 won their inaugural series of Test matches outside their own nation by touring Zimbabwe and winning both games!
Bangladesh made their Test debut against West Indies in 2009 and won both games to register their maiden overseas series win in Test cricket. Bangladesh have grown immensely over time and become formidable opponents, particularly in shorter formats of cricket.

Meetings
Bangladesh had low expectations coming into this tournament after suffering an uneven series win against Zimbabwe and being stunned by the USA, yet their youngster Rishad Hossain and Litton Das were instrumental in propelling them to an unlikely Super Eight spot. Bangladesh were hoping to capitalize on their momentum by defeating Australia and opening up quarter-final play as soon as possible.
After a promising start by David Warner and Travis Head who scored 65 in just 6.5 overs, Bangladesh’s spinners began to flourish. Rishad Hossain excelled with his left-arm wrist spin which generated lots of turn and bounce while Mustafizur Rahman bowled some decent overs. When rain finally interrupted play (squalls had been blowing through throughout the evening), Australia were 28 runs ahead.
Once play resumed, Warner and Head quickly restored Australia’s dominance by adding 55 in four overs. Rishad then claimed his second scalp in the next over by trapping Head lbw with an elegantly flighted ball that pitched on off but spin hard off surface before cutting by batter before turning back around into off and collapsing into off.
Bangladesh have struggled to post 300 runs so far in this game and would find it challenging to defend that figure on a pitch conducive to batting like Pune. Even Shakib may find this an uphill task given his fine form recently and could have possibly added to it had it not been for Angelo Mathews running him out on an controversial tactic that has caused outrage in the media.
Zampa took control of the situation next, taking out three lower order batsmen with ease to leave Bangladesh 137-4 in 18 overs – although Hridoy did hit two sixes, their chances never looked likely of reaching 200 runs. When rain returned shortly thereafter, Zampa struck again – his slider passed Hasan only to clip top edge before Josh Hazlewood caught at short fine leg.
