BAN vs AUS Betting Tips
Highest individual score Under 92.5
The pitch at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is not the easiest for batting. Only one of the last 11 matches played here has seen an individual score of more than 91 runs, and we are unlikely to see one in this match.
Tanzid Hasan to score over 21.5 runs
Tanzid Hasan has been in excellent form, scoring at least 22 runs in 4 of his last 7 matches, including 3 half-centuries and a century. He averages close to 47 at this venue, so we are backing him to play another strong innings.

BAN vs AUS Team Previews
Bangladesh
Bangladesh delivered a clinical performance against Australia in the first ODI to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. They will now be eager to maintain that momentum and seal their first-ever bilateral series win against the Aussies.
Bangladesh’s batting looked in excellent touch. Tanzid Hasan is enjoying a purple patch, having registered his third 50-plus score in five games, and he will once again have an important role to play at the top of the order.
Najmul Hossain Shanto also struck a half-century, and the pair laid the foundation for Bangladesh’s imposing total. In addition, Bangladesh has quality batting options in Saif Hassan, Litton Das, and Towhid Hridoy, all of whom are capable of playing the big shots with ease.
Mosaddek Hossain, playing his first ODI since 2022, impressed with both bat and ball and is likely to retain his place in the XI. In the bowling department, the seamers were outstanding, with Nahid Rana claiming four wickets. He will be supported by Mustafizur Rahman and Taskin Ahmed, while Mehidy Hasan Miraz will partner Mosaddek in the spin attack.
Bangladesh Expected Playing 11
Saif Hassan, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das (WK), Towhid Hridoy, Mehidy Hasan Miraz (C), Mosaddek Hossain, Nahid Rana, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Tanvir Islam

Australia
Australia will be very disappointed with the way they performed on Tuesday and will be desperate to bounce back.
They are missing some of their first-choice players and will need their younger players to step up. Cooper Connolly is coming off an impressive IPL campaign and will look to provide a solid start alongside Matthew Short at the top of the order.
The middle order contains experienced names such as Josh Inglis, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey, and Cameron Green, but Matt Renshaw and Liam Scott do not have much experience in these conditions. Australia’s bowling was below par in the first match, and it is an area they will be keen to improve.
In the absence of Hazlewood, Starc, and Cummins, much will depend on Xavier Bartlett and Nathan Ellis. Ben Dwarshuis is also in the squad and could come into contention. The spin attack will once again be led by Adam Zampa.
Australia Expected Playing 11
Josh Inglis (C & WK), Matthew Short, Cooper Connolly, Marnus Labuschagne, Cameron Green, Alex Carey, Matt Renshaw, Liam Scott, Adam Zampa, Xavier Bartlett, Nathan Ellis
BAN vs AUS Toss Prediction
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
While the Shere Bangla National Stadium has traditionally produced slow surfaces, the previous match offered true pace and bounce because of an even covering of green grass.
The venue has received some rain over the last few days, and there could still be moisture under the surface, which should help the faster bowlers. Batters may need time in the middle before they can play freely.
The weather is expected to remain warm and humid with overcast skies, and there is also a chance of rain interruptions.
BAN vs AUS : Who Will Win?
We are backing Bangladesh to win this match. They have played good cricket over the last few months, and most of their players are in strong form. Australia is fielding a relatively inexperienced squad, and that could prove costly in these conditions.
Bet on Bangladesh to win.
