Nottingham Pitch Report-
Looking at the previous contests at Nottingham, one can easily say batters have got some extra favour from the wicket. The average first innings score at the venue is 252.
As far as weather updates are concerned, some scattered showers are forecasted but there’s nothing to worried of as the game will progress. Seam bowlers will get little assistance early on after which it will be completely a batting surface.

AUS vs BAN Head to Head
Australia have won 18 of their 20 previous matches against Bangladesh, and remain unbeaten against the Tigers at the World Cup. Bangladesh’s one and only win in this fixture was in England, however, back in 2005 – Mohammad Ashraful’s century making global headlines in that five-wicket win.
Their most recent ODI match was also in England, but was curtailed by the rain at the last Champions Trophy.
