Head and Warner are at the crease. Head is on strike. Taskin Ahmed will open the attack
Welcome back for the chase. Got to be a stiff one. But Australia would fancy themselves on this good batting turf.
Marnus Labuschange: They played well at the top, put us under pressure. We pulled it back nicely. It is a decent score, but looks like a good wicket. (On the run outs) I think it is about awareness of where the run out could happen, and early speed towards the ball. I do a lot of work on stump hitting, sliding around and rely on whatever work you’ve done in practice before the tournament. Need to keep myself fresh for the tournament. (On how they’d approach chase) Play nice and positive up top, and then when we get an opportunity in the middle overs, just play smart and finish things off.
Highest score for BAN vs AUS in World Cups 102* - Mushfiqur Rahim, Nottingham 2019 74 - Towhid Hridoy, Pune, 2023* 69 - Mahmudullah, Nottingham 2019 - This is now highest team totals for Bangladesh in this World Cup
14:16 Local Time, 08:46 GMT, 14:16 IST: Bangladesh have gone past 300 for the first time in the tournament, this is easily their best batting effort in #CWC23, although the pitch is preet batting friendly and the square boundaries are on the shorter side.
