Bangladesh have come into the T20 World Cup defeating the Aussies 4-1 in the T20 series. And in their previous game, against South Africa Tuesday, Bangladesh had hit the lowest point in the journey after they were all out for just 84, their sixth lowest total in the format. Against South Africa, Bangladesh innings recorded four ducks involving key batters in Soumya Sarkar, Mushfiqur Rahim and Afif Hossain, while only three batters could score in double digit. Bangladesh will carry the blow of missing star all-rounder Shakib al Hasan to injury in this game too. Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman was benched against South Africa and is likely to come back to action in place of left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed.
