Preview:
Two great rivals Australia and England will be crossing their swords in the 17th match of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2024. It will be the fourth face-off between the two cricketing giants in the history of the T20 World Cup. Previously, the Aussies and The Three Lions took on each other in 2007, 2010, and 2021 editions of the T20 World Cup.
England have a slight advantage as they have won two matches in the previous three meetings with Australia in the T20 World Cup. Speaking of the current edition, Australia are coming off with a win against Oman while England got their first game against Scotland washed out due to rain.
So, Mitchell Marsh’s men will be eyeing continuing their winning run while the defending champions England will be looking ahead for a winning start in the tournament.
