Defending T20 World Cup champions England(ENG) will face their biggest test of the T20 World Cup when they take on Australia. The match in Barbados will be a highly charged up one as both sides will be looking to outdo each other. The last time the two teams met at this venue in this format was during the T20 World Cup finals of 2010 where the English had won.
Australia (AUS) come into the contest on the back of their massive win against Oman. Marcus Stoinis and David Warner had scored valuable half-centuries for their sides. Stoinis also had picked three wickets with the ball to make it a day to remember for himself. The Kangaroos know that England are their biggest obstacle in the tournament if they have to win their 3rd successive ICC title.
