Bangladesh to bat against Australia

Australia skipper Aaron Finch won the toss and elected to field against Bangladesh in a crucial Super 12 clash for them in the Twenty20 World Cup on Thursday.

The Aussies have made one change from their previous loss to England with Mitchell Marsh coming in for Ashton Agar.

Australia, who have won two out of their three matches, need a win to boost their semi-final hopes and Finch said they want to ‘exploit any moisture on offer’ while bowling.

The Australians are currently third in Group 1, two points behind South Africa and four back from leaders England but have Thursday’s game in hand.
