Bangladesh vs Australia Betting: Overview

Will Bangladesh capitalise on England taking the wind out of Australia's sails and cause yet another major upset over the rejuvenated Australia?

Bangladesh vs Australia Tips & Prediction

There have been several shocks and unexpected outcomes during this tournament so far. Until now, the series has seen Bangladesh exhibit some good form, but ultimately, they have been unable to finish stronger than any of their opposition.

Australia has shown a substantial improvement in T20 form over recent years during the ICC World Cup, but despite quality players, have never seemed to appear dominant. In their defeat to England, their continued inability to transfer their historically-strong ODI strength into the even shorter game was once again proven.

With Australia’s heads down after such an embarrassing defeat, the timing could be ideal for Bangladesh to generate an upset. However, the performances of the two teams during this tournament have been miles apart from each other and we predict Australia will beat Bangladesh in a brutal show of force.

Team News

As part of our Bangladesh vs Australia betting guide for the ICC T20 World Cup, we’ve made sure to provide punters with the latest team news to keep you as informed as possible during one of the world’s top cricket tournaments.

Bangladesh

The most notable change to the Bangladesh squad is the unfortunate loss of Mohammad Saifuddin to injury. Saifuddin had taken 5 wickets during the Bangladesh campaign, and with 28 T20I’s to his name, he brought much experience to the squad. Right-arm quick Rubel Hossain was approved as Saifuddin’s replacement last week.

Key Players

Knowing who the stars are can really help your Bangladesh vs Australia betting strategy. Key players can make or break a game, and knowing a little more about them could lead to that perfect best batsman or most sixes wager. Let's take a look at some of them.

Bangladesh

• Shakib Al Hasan – The best all-rounder in the Bangladesh squad and one of the highest-ranked players in the world. Al Hasan is 1st in the T20I rankings and in the top 25 overall. The man’s career has been marred by a short suspension under ICC anti-corruption rules, but his stats speak for themselves. With the bat, Al Hasan averages 28.55 against Australia and a bowling average of 19.08.
• Shoriful Islam – A rising star within the Bangladeshi ranks, Islam is a 6ft 3 left-arm quick who has taken 3 wickets in the tournament so far and his record against Australia is rather notable. He took 7 wickets at 11.85 during Bangladesh’s 4 – 1 victory against Australia in August 2021.

Australia

• Adam Zampa – This young spinner has been carving a name for himself in the short game over the last 5 years. In 51 innings, Zampa has taken 56 wickets at a solid economy rate of 6.84. While his only games against Bangladesh were the 4 – 1 defeat this year, Zampa performed rather well, with 8 wickets at a strike rate of 15. In the last ICC T20 World Cup, Zampa was the highest-performing bowler.
• David Warner – As the 7th highest run-scorer in matches between these two teams, David Warner is undoubtedly a power-hitting force. His 81 runs against Bangladesh come from only 3 innings. It’s quite hard to ignore an over T20I record of 2,344 runs at 31.67 – including 231 boundaries along the grass and 89 balls sent over the fence. The left-hander has a great record in the UAE too, where he averages 48.80, with a strike rate of 140.22.

Form

These two teams played each other in a 5-match series just ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup. In that series, Bangladesh defeated Australia rather confidently. While Bangladesh outperformed Australia, it cannot be understated that Australia did field a 2nd-string team during that series. 

For this Bangladesh vs Australia betting form analysis, both sides have several ICC T20 World Cup matches under their belts.

So far, Bangladesh has lost all 3 of their previous matches during the Super 12 stage of the ICC T20 World Cup. Their first two losses were quite substantial, including a crushing loss to England that saw the British side chase down 124 in a mere 14 overs.

However, in their last match against the West Indies, Bangladesh put up a strong fight and only fell short by 3 runs and had wickets in hand after their 20 overs.

Australia started their campaign aggressively with commanding wins over South Africa and Sri Lanka. In those matches, the Australian bowlers showed particularly good form. Australia had been showing signs of a strong resurgence in the short game but their defeat to England saw previous stars, namely Zampa, Warner, & Starc, capitulate.

Key Stats for Bangladesh vs Australia

Before you log in to any of the cricket betting apps in India, it’ll be worth considering some key stats between these two nations. Remember that stats can paint a picture of form, strengths, weaknesses, and how key players have performed. These key stats will be sure to aid in developing an informed Bangladesh vs Australia betting strategy.

• Formerly undefeated – Up until only this August, Australia was previously undefeated in Twenty20 matches against Bangladesh, having won all 4 games between 2007 – 2016. However, Australia experienced a brutal 4 – 1 defeat in Bangladesh.
• Lowest total without a duck – Australia's miserable 62 against Bangladesh in their last outing together is a record breaker. Not only is it the lowest T20I total by Australia, it is also the lowest T20I total, played by a Test-playing nation, without any ducks in the innings. Technically, the lowest ever is Bulgaria’s 60 against Romania in 2020.
• Bowling prowess – the 5 highest wicket-takers in matches between these two teams are all playing in this tournament. All-round superstar Al Hasan tops the table with 12 wickets, while relatively new Australian bowlers Hazlewood and Zampa, are the only Australians in the top 5 with 8 wickets each.

History of Bangladesh vs Australia

These two teams have a particularly long history together, dating back to 1990 when Australia first met Bangladesh during the Austral-Asia Cup. Some may be surprised to learn that that means the first time these two teams played was in the U.A.E – the same location as the ICC T20 World Cup.

In 21 ODI matches, Australia has dominated with 19 victories, including 1 no result and a single Bangladesh victory since 1990.

Bangladesh has always maintained a strong relationship with Australia. Since becoming a Test-playing nation in 2000, the Bangladesh Cricket Board was based on Cricket Australia, and attempted to emulate the infrastructure seen in Australia.

However, despite providing much aid in the development of cricket infrastructure in Bangladesh, Australia has been criticised for failing to play many Test matches against Bangladesh and for showing little interest in hosting a Test series.

Bangladesh has played Australia in Test matches since 2003 – 6 matches in 3 series. In 2017, Bangladesh beat Australia for the first time in Test matches with a tight 20-run victory in the first Test at home.
