BAN vs AUS, the 2nd T20I match of the Australia tour of Bangladesh, is set to begin at the Bir Sreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium in Chattogram. At 1:30 PM IST, the first ball of the T20I action will be bowled. Australia, after winning the first T20I at the same venue by 4 wickets, is in great form and looking to seal the series in the 2nd T20I.
In the last match, the Aussie spinners were outstanding, as 9 wickets out of 10 were taken by spinners alone. Adam Zampa and Joel Davies took 3 wickets each and dismantled the Bangladesh batting order.
As irregularities in the leadership of the Bangladesh captain, the team, and management are facing issues like stability and overall performance, as Litton Das, the opener of the Bangladesh unit, missed the last game, and in the 2nd T20I, his availability is in question.
