Australia and Bangladesh will face each other in Match 44 of the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua.

Under Mitchell Marsh's astute captaincy, Australia qualified for the second round from Group B. They won four consecutive matches to finish at the top. 

In contrast, Bangladesh, under the leadership of Najmul Hossain Shanto, entered the Super 8 round from Group D after finishing in the second spot. They won three games and lost one out of four in the group stage.

So, ahead of this interesting contest between Bangladesh and Australia, let's examine the pitch conditions of Sir Vivian Richards Stadium Antigua. 


Sir Vivian Richards Stadium Antigua Pitch Report 

The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua offers a balanced contest with even bounce for batters and early assistance for the seamers. 

The spinners become effective later, getting turn and variable bounce. Thus, the track promotes competitive cricket and rewards skilled bowlers and determined batters.

The surface has been challenging for the batters, who need to spend some time in the middle and use the hard new ball in the powerplay to score runs. 

The spinners and hit-the-deck pacers have got sufficient help from the pitch and are expected to succeed in this encounter. Considering it's an evening game, the toss-winner might bowl unless an extremely dry surface is dished out.
