Australia after losing both the opening games, have won their first game against Sri Lanka and rather comfortably, boosting their NRR and moving them to the 7th spot. Their main aim will just be to move up the table now, and win a very important win in this game.
Pakistan had a terrible collapse against India, where 8 wickets fell in just a span of 40 odd runs, and that’s where they lost the game. They will have a tough encounter in this game, as they face the mighty Aussies, who are trying to redeem themselves.
Chinnaswamy stadium has a belter of a pitch and it will suit the batters with pacers delivery coming right into the arc of the batters. The bounce, the pace comes directly into the bat and it will be a heaven for the team batting first, as they can put on heavy runs on the board. This will be the first WC game at Chinnaswamy.
In the last game here, India (289) defeated Australia by 7 wickets in January 2020.
