𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : England vs Australia​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Sep 13, Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 23:00 PM IST​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd T20I 2024 Ruthless Australia look to wrap up the series at the earliest opportunity in this T20I in Cardiff on Friday evening. England vs Australia TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ENG vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis Any cricket contest between England and Australia can not help but have some spotlight on it but if the truth be told this series is one which has the least to play for in a while. Indeed, the five ODIs which will follow, with the Champions Trophy in February next year, have more of a carrot for the players to perform towards considering there is no T20 World Cup until February 2026. TEAMS PREVIEW England Preview With captain Jos Buttler missing the series due to a calf injury, eyebrows were raised in the English media when it was announced that Jamie Overton would be his batting replacement – albeit batting at number seven. This was because although there were no questions that Overton is a strong hitter lower down the order he is hardly a like for like replacement. Australia Preview Australia brought their exciting brand of attacking white ball cricket down from Scotland and made mincemeat of England’s bowling attack during the powerplay in Southampton on Wednesday! Weather Conditions Wednesday’s opening T20I was played under dark cloudy skies and with the temperatures rapidly falling from a peak of 12 degrees! It might be slightly more pleasant in Cardiff on Friday and no rain is threatening to interrupt the match. We expect the temperature to drop from 15 degrees to 12 degrees across this match. ENG vs AUS Pitch Report With short straight boundaries at one end of the ground, care always needs to be taken by captains at Sophia Gardens when choosing which bowlers to go with at which batters. After a cool and damp summer, there is plenty of life in the pitch and whoever bats first will be looking to post a total of 170+ on Friday evening.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : England vs Australia​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Sep 11, Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 23:00 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : The Rose Bowl, United Kingdom, United Kingdom𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20I 2024 After a nearly perfect summer of Test cricket, England’s attentions switch to eight white ball matches against Australia! England vs Australia TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ENG vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis Any clash between England and Australia will see the intensity go up a notch and even though this tour is beginning at the back end of the summer there will be no shortage of animosity and rivalry between the two camps! TEAMS PREVIEW England Preview With Jos Buttler out of the series with a recurring hamstring injury and Matthew Mott’s two year stint as England white-ball coach coming to an end after the T20 World Cup, there will be fresh leadership on and off the pitch for the hosts in this opener. Australia Preview After finding Scotland as more than hospitable hosts during the three match series in Edinburgh, Australia can expect a far tougher test south of the border during this T20I series. But a tough test is what Australian sports professionals live for and those who excelled in Scotland will be looking to bring that form into this opening match. Weather Conditions The conditions are not going to be like ones which Australians enjoy at home although they have just acclimatised with three games north of the border in Scotland. According to the forecast there will be cloud cover throughout with the temperature dropping from 14 degrees at the start of the T20I. ENG vs AUS Pitch Report The Rose Bowl has hosted many famous clashes of international cricket and none more so than the first ever T20I between England and Australia ahead of the 2005 Ashes Series. The bounce and pace of the pitch is consistent but there will also be some turn for the spinners at this late stage of the home summer. Whoever bats first will be looking to post a total of 170+.

Scotland vs Australia, AUS vs SCOT 2024, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Scotland vs Australia𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Sep 06, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 18:30 PM IST​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Grange Cricket Ground, Edinburgh, United Kingdom𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd T20i 2024 Scotland are yet to beat Australia in T20Is. Scotland vs Australia TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SCT vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis Australia absolutely annihilated Scotland in the first T20I in Edinburgh to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. The home side started out with good intent, but eventually couldn’t put up a tall enough score to challenge the Aussies. They will need to play out of their skins to get past this strong Aussie outfit. Otherwise, Australia are overwhelming favorites to make it 2-0 after this game.  TEAMS PREVIEW Scotland Preview Scotland started the first T20I on a positive note. At one stage, they were 101-3 inside 12 overs. However, their middle order faltered, and they ended up with an under-par score of 156-9.  Australia Preview Australia kicked off their white-ball tour of the UK in devastating style, trouncing Scotland by seven wickets in the first of three T20Is in Edinburgh on Wednesday. Travis Head’s blistering 25-ball 80 steered Australia to a swift victory, as they easily chased down a modest 155-run target in just 9.4 overs on a flat Edinburgh wicket. Weather Conditions The wicket at the Grange Cricket Club in Edinburgh is a batter’s paradise. The new ball bowlers will get some movement off the seam in the first couple of overs. But after that, batters can just settle in and smack the ball to all corners of the ground. Spinners will need bowl tight lines to keep the run flow in check. The pitch will slow down a little in the middle phase of the innings. Edinburgh will see sunny intervals and a moderate breeze throughout the day. We should get a full match. SCT vs AUS Pitch Report The average first innings score at the Grange Cricket Club is 175. The highest total posted at the venue is New Zealand’s mammoth 254/5 versus Scotland in 2022. If Australia bats first in this match, they might get close to that score. Scotland will need to score at least 200 runs and above to challenge this Australian batting unit.

SCT vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis Host Scotland will be keen to put on a decent show when they face Australia in the opening match of the T20Iseries played at Grange Cricket Club, Edinburgh on Wednesday.

The game will be played at the Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent and will start at 6:00 AM IST on June 23 This is a must win game for Afghanistan after a crushing defeat to India in the last game. Afghanistan came into the Super 8 after wins over New Zealand, Uganda and PNG, however, they were blown away by India. The team was let down by the batters as they folded out for 134 in a chase of 182, losing the game by 47 runs. The big defeat also pegged Afghanistan in run rate thus the team needs a big win against Australia to stay alive. Meanwhile, Australia defeated Bangladesh in a rain curtailed game by 28 runs.  It was a comprehensive win for Australia but Bangladesh wasn’t going to Test Australia anyway. However, Afghanistan is a team that can put the Aussies under pressure. Aussie batters will have a task on hand against the Afghan spinners on good bowling conditions. This should be a close game.  AFG vs AUS Match Toss PredictionTeams have bowled first in most game given the rain around and helpful bowling conditions and once again captain winning the toss should opt to chase.

The opener is our tip for Australia’s highest run scorer against Bangladesh. Adam Zampa has taken nine wickets across the tournament so far and the spinner is a strong choice for Australia’s top wicket taker in this game.The experienced all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has top scored for Bangladesh across the last two games and we are backing him to be their highest run scorer against Australia. With the ball, Tanzim Hasan Sakib has nine wickets in the 2024 T20 World Cup and we expect him to be Bangladesh’s top wicket taker in this clash.With 2+ wickets in three of his four first round group stage, we recommend selecting Adam Zampa to take over 1.5 wickets in this fixture.

Australia vs Bangladesh Match Prediction & Betting Tips, T20 World Cup 2024 Match 44 of the 2024 T20 World Cup and the second game of Group 1 in the Super Eights sees Australia take on Bangladesh at North Sound, Antigua. Australia finished top of Group B in the opening stage of the tournament with Bangladesh ending second in Group D. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Thursday 20th June at 20:30 local time. Australia went through the entirety of the first round stage without slipping up or dropping points but they were tested by Scotland in their final match last Saturday. That contest should serve them well ahead of this game and we expect them to be too strong for Bangladesh. After coming into the tournament with many pundits writing them off, Bangladesh have lost only one game with that defeat a tight four run loss against South Africa in New York. With a competitive record against Australia, we expect Bangladesh to approach this match with confidence. Australia vs Bangladesh Match Toss PredictionAlthough the first three games at this venue in the 2024 T20 World Cup were all won by the team fielding first, the last two have been won by the side batting first. Therefore, our prediction is that both skippers will arrive at the toss wanting to bat first. Australia vs Bangladesh Pitch ReportWe saw 370 runs and ten wickets at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Wednesday with batters having the upper-hand. That said, pace bowlers who bowled accurately and with high level slower balls were able to be successful. We expect a par score on this pitch to be around 180. Antigua Weather ReportIt will be a humid evening in Antigua throughout Thursday evening with plenty of cloud cover and only a very small chance of rain interruptions. The temperature will not drop below 27 degrees. Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Australia vs Bangladesh, T20 World Cup 2024

Australia vs Scotland Match Prediction & Betting Tips, T20 World Cup 2024 Match 35 of the 2024 T20 World Cup sees Australia take on Scotland on Saturday evening in St Lucia. Read on as we preview this match. Australia have played three and won three so far in Group B with Scotland winning two alongside one no-result. The game begins at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet at 20:30 local time. Australia currently hold the 50-over Cricket World Cup trophy and their form so far in this tournament gives them plenty of encouragement that they could hold both trophies in a couple of week’s time. They won’t take Scotland lightly and we expect another strong performance from Australia. Scotland have been one of the major success stories so far in the 2024 T20 World Cup and their record could have been even better if the rain had not arrived in Bridgetown against England earlier this month. We can expect them to attack and not be overawed against this strong Australia side. Australia vs Scotland Match Toss PredictionFour out of the last five T20Is at this venue have been won by the team batting first and, even though there has not been a T20I here for three years, we expect both captains to choose to bat first Australia vs Scotland Pitch ReportThere were over 380 runs and 17 wickets in the last T20I at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium so we can expect plenty of action in this game. The surface will offer good pace and carry and a par score is likely to be approaching 200. St Lucia Weather ReportThis looks like being a warm evening in Gros Islet with the temperature above 27 degrees throughout this game. We are not expecting to see any rain interruptions.

Australia vs Namibia Highlights: Adam Zampa’s record-setting spell propels Australia into T20 World Cup Super Eights | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: Adam Zampa‘s mesmerizing spell of four wickets for a mere 12 runs in his allotted four overs propelled the undefeated Australian side into the Super Eights stage of the Twenty20 World Cup with a resounding nine-wicket triumph over Namibia in Antigua on Tuesday. Australia secured their Super 8 berth with one Group B encounter still remaining.T20 World Cup Schedule | Points TableThe leg spinner, continuing his scintillating form from the previous victory against the defending champions England, played a pivotal role in skittling out the Namibian batting lineup for a paltry 72 runs in 17 overs, marking the lowest total Australia have ever restricted an opponent to in T20 international cricket.As it happened: Australia vs NamibiaIn response, the swashbuckling David Warner set the tone with a blistering 20 off just eight deliveries before Travis Head took charge, smashing an unbeaten 34 from 17 balls to guide the 2021 champions to a comprehensive victory within six overs at the iconic Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, effectively extinguishing Namibia’s faint hopes of advancing to the next stage.Namibia’s skipper Gerhard Erasmus emerged as the top-scorer for the African nation, displaying grit and determination in his valiant knock of 36 before falling prey to a well-disguised Marcus Stoinis delivery, which he mistimed straight into the hands of Glenn Maxwell at midwicket. Zampa etched his name in the record books as the first Australian male cricketer to reach the milestone of 100 wickets in the shortest format of international cricket with his final scalp, a classic dismissal that saw him clean bowl Bernard Scholtz through the gate.“Just trying to do my thing, mate,” remarked a modest Zampa, who was deservedly awarded the Player of the Match accolade. “We’re happy, it’s the first step in trying to take the trophy home but a long way to go.”Australia will conclude their Group B fixture against Scotland in St Lucia on Saturday, while Namibia will remain in Antigua to lock horns with England on the same day.(With inputs from Reuters)
