BAN-W vs AUS-W, 2nd T20I: Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between BAN-W vs AUS-W?

We will be analyzing the BAN-W vs AUS-W Match Prediction. Bangladesh (BAN-W) and Australia (AUS-W) are all set to clash against each other in the second T20I of the three-match series on Tuesday, April 02, at the Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.

Bangladesh, after the recent ODI series defeat, didn’t have the start they would have liked in the T20I series. Skipper Nigar Sultana played a captains’s knock of 63 runs off 64 balls in the first T20I but with no support from the other end, the side could only manage to score 126/4 after electing to bat first. Eventually, Bangladesh lost the first T20I by 10 wickets. In the second game, the hosts will be looking for a turnaround and come back strong.

Bangladesh’s bowling woes were evident in the first game, as they failed to pick up even a single wicket in the whole game. Skipper Alyssa Healy (65*) and Beth Mooney (55*) constructed a brilliant partnership and smashed the Bangladeshi bowlers all around the park to seal the game for their side. Healy was even awarded the Player of the Match award for her amazing batting performance. The visitors, after the win, will be more confident coming into the upcoming clash and will look to take the lead to 2-0 in the series.

Probable Best Batter: Alyssa Healy

Alyssa Healy’s scintillating performance in the first T20I makes her a top contender for the best batter position in the upcoming clash. Healy has so far had a decent series with the bat. But her recent match-winning knock will surely boost her confidence and take the same form for the forthcoming game.

Probable Best Bowler: Sophie Molineux

In the upcoming 2nd T20I, Sophie Molineux could emerge as a strong contender for the title of the best bowler. The left-arm spinner had a key role to play in the visitors’ victory in their previous encounter. She ended with two wickets giving 25 runs in her quota of four overs. In the recently concluded WPL 2024, Molineux had a crucial hand in the finals as she picked up three wickets and won the Player of the Match award, guiding her team to their first title victory.
