AUS vs ENG Team Previews
Australia
Australia won the T20 World Cup three years ago and are eager to added a second title this time. It was not necessarily a one-sided affair, but the Australians were relatively untested in their first match of the tournament against Oman. This time, England will pose a much bigger challenge.
Look forward to an intriguing tussle between David Warner and Mark Wood or Jofra Archer. Warner can be really good at using the fast bowlers' pace against them. Warner and Marcus Stoinis hit a half-century each in Australia's previous fixture against Oman. Stoinis also took three wickets.
Stoinis is one of the best all-rounders in T20 cricket at the moment. He hit a record-breaking century in the Indian Premier League recently. Nathan Ellis' role could be key. He is renowned for good pace and pinpoint yorkers. Ellis took two wickets against Oman.
Australia Playing 11
David Warner, Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Timothy David, Matthew Wade, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood.
England
England had to settled for shared points against Scotland earlier this tournament. The washout, though, potentially saved the English from defeat. Scotland had romped to 90 without loss before the wet weather had the final say. England have won the T20 World Cup twice and are the reigning champions - they need to do better going forward.
Wood and Archer were effective with the new ball against Scotland, but the other bowlers - Adil Rashid, Chris Jordan and company - failed to follow suit. It's here where Warner has noted a potential weakness for Australia to exploit. England might want to introduce more spin earlier this time.
England's batting order, though unused in this tournament so far, is packed with firepower. Phil Salt is an outstanding asset for the team at the top of the order these days. He has struck back-to-back T20I centuries in the Caribbean previously. And, of course, there are big names such as Jos Buttler and Jonny Bairstow to follow.
England Playing 11
Philip Salt, Jos Buttler, Will Jacks, Jonny Bairstow, Harry Brook, Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.

Salt has hit two T20I tons in the West Indies - and a couple of key cameos in Bridgetown in particular. He knows how to bat quickly and successfully in these Caribbean conditions.
