Today Cricket Match Prediction, England vs Australia, ICC T20 World Cup 2022, 26th Match. Who Will Win, On October 28, 2022

The 25th match of World Cup T20 2022 is scheduled to play between Afghanistan and Ireland on Friday, 28th October 2022 at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne.

England was confident after having a sold win over Afghanistan but Ireland performed well and they were on the winning side. The previous match with England was shortened but the rain continues and the match was called off. Rain indeed played a role in England losing the match but we can’t blame the rain. England was poor in bowling and leaked a lot of runs. They were charged for 157 runs and sent the full team of Ireland back to the pavilion in 19.2 overs. Chris Woakes was the bowler who leaked plenty of runs. He was charged for 41 runs in three overs and remained wickets less. Remember that his economic rate was near about 14. It was Liam Livingstone who proved the most successful bowler from their side picking three wickets in three overs against 17 runs.

Mark Wood also picked up three wickets but he was charged with 34 runs in four overs. Sam Curran was the other expensive bowler from the side of England. He picked up two wickets in three overs against 31 runs. Ben Stokes was the other bowler with a wicket to his name in 2.2 overs against just 8 runs. Adil Rashid failed to pick any wicket but proved an economical bowler. He was charged with 24 runs in four overs. The batters of England were not good in the early overs. They lost their two key wickets on a total of just 14 runs. Dawid Malan scored some runs but his strike rate was very poor. He scored 35 runs on 37 balls. Harry Brook scored 18 runs and he faced 21 balls. Moeen Ali was good with the bat. He scored 24 runs on just 12 balls and smashed three boundaries and one huge six. Jos Buttler, Alex Hales, and Ben Stokes failed to give the best performance.

Australia shocked its fans by losing their first match against New Zealand by a big margin but they showed their strength in the next match against Sri Lanka. The bowlers of Australia were not much impressive but they restricted Sri Lanka from scoring a big total. They leaked 157 runs in 20 overs. Adam Zampa was not part of the playing eleven and Ashton Agar replaced him. We are sure that Adam Zampa will join the team for this important match against England. Mitchell Starc was the most economical bowler in the previous match with one wicket to his name in four overs against 23 runs. Josh Hazlewood also performed well and picked one wicket in four overs while he was charged for 26 runs. Glenn Maxwell, Ashton Agar, and Pat Cummins also picked one wicket each. Pat Cummins proved the most expensive bowler who leaked 36 runs in four overs.

Australia had a slow start while chasing a low target on the board. Two key batters of Australia went back to the pavilion very quickly. David Warner scored 11 runs and Mitchell Marsh had just 17 runs to his name. The skipper, Aaron Finch remained on the crease and scored 31 runs on 42 balls. Glenn Maxwell also failed to put some big runs on the board and scored 23 runs on 12 balls with the help of two boundaries and the same huge sixes. Marcus Stoinis proved the most successful and the hero of the day. He smashed the inning of 59 runs on just 18 balls with the help of four boundaries and four huge sixes. He scored runs against each and every bowler of Sri Lanka and played his shots freely. The pitch was not good enough to bat but Marcus Stoinis showed his batting skills.
