T20 WC 2022| England vs Australia| Fantasy tips & prediction

England and Australia have played two matches each. Both have won and lost a game. Australia lost their first match against New Zealand and bounced back against Sri Lanka while England won their first match against Afghanistan but were unlucky against Ireland as rain spoilt their chances as Ireland beat England by 5 runs (DLS method). 

This match is crucial for both teams because if either team loses, their chances to qualify for the semis become slim. Hopefully, rain doesn't play spoilsport as fans await a mouth-watering contest as an old rivalry is ignited between the two countries.
