Pitch Report
Although spin has dominated the series so far, a fresh track is expected for today's game, possibly helping the batters a touch in the early exchanges. There should be some movement on offer for the pacers early on. However, as the match progresses, the spinners are bound to have a say, making for a good contest in the middle overs. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 150 being par at the venue.
Today's BAN vs AUS Dream11 match top picks
Wicket-keeper
Matthew Wade: Australian captain Matthew Wade has been batting out of position, a possible reason for his lack of runs. He could be in line for a promotion, which could be a better use of explosive batting ability in this format.
Batsmen
Josh Philippe: Josh Philippe has for long been considered a bright prospect in the shorter formats. He has shown glimpses of his ability and given his potential, he should find himself back in the runs sooner rather than later.
Mohammad Naim: Bangladesh opener Mohammad Naim has been decent against the likes of Starc and Josh Hazlewood in this series. Although he hasn't been able to score a big one, he could be a big addition to your BAN vs AUS Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounders
Shakib Al Hasan: Star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been consistent with both the bat and ball in T20Is this year. Given the nature of the pitch, Shakib is a must-have in your fantasy team.
Bowlers
Mustafizur Rahman: Mustafizur Rahman has been unplayable in the series with his clever variations outfoxing a few Aussie batsmen already. With form on his side, Mustafizur should pick up a wicket or two yet again today.
Adam Zampa: With the amount of spin on offer, Adam Zampa should prove to be a handful for the home side. Although he hasn't been quite economical, one can bank on him to pick up a few wickets and deliver valuable points for your BAN vs AUS Dream11 fantasy team.
