Bangladesh, meanwhile, were competitive last season, winning one and losing one in the group stage before falling to Sri Lanka in the second semi-final. They return with a familiar core, led by Akbar Ali, with Mosaddek Hossain and Mohammad Saifuddin bringing valuable finishing and all-round depth.

Australia vs Bangladesh Head-To-Head
This is the second encounter between both sides in the Hong Kong Sixes, with Australia coming out victorious in both matches.
Australia vs Bangladesh Best Batters
Jack Wood to be Australia’s best batter
Jack Wood was the best batter for Australia in the previous clash, scoring 55 runs off just 11 balls, in what was a great show of batsmanship. Even though Ben McDermott couldn’t do much with the bat, Wood’s show ensured things worked out fine for Australia. So backing them to do well won’t be a bad idea.
Mosaddek Hossain to be Bangladesh’s best batter
Mosaddek Hossain is going to be Bangladesh’s trump card in the Hong Kong Sixes, particularly because of his high-intent batting. He has scored at a strike rate of 156 in T20 powerplays, a kind of impact he’d want to bring in to the Six-Overs-a-side tournament.
Australia vs Bangladesh Best Bowlers
Chris Green to be Australia’s best bowler
Chris Green’s carrom-ball + arm-ball mix translates exceptionally well to Sixes cricket. In franchise T10 cricket, he has maintained an economy under 8.1, picking 14 wickets in his last 18 matches. He forces mistimed lofted shots which is gold in this format. Even in the first match, he picked up two wickets in one over - which means we can trust him to deliver once again.
Mohammad Saifuddin to be Bangladesh’s best bowler
Only one bowler is allowed to bowl 2 overs for their team, and expect Mohammad Saifuddin to do the job for Bangladesh. Saifuddin’s control over slower balls and yorkers makes him a standout in the Sixes arena. His variations are tailor-made for six-ball overs where batters have no time to settle. Expect him to pick at least two key wickets.
