Bangladesh (BAN) will be hoping to end their tournament on a good note, as they take on Australia (AUS) in their last group stage match in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023. The match is set to be played in Maharashtra State Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. It is very important for Bangladesh, considering that their qualification for the Champions Trophy 2025 depends on it.
Australia has already qualified for the semifinal of the ODI World Cup 2023. They have also qualified for the Champions Trophy 2023 and are set to face South Africa in the semifinal of the ODI World Cup 2023. From their past, there is little to worry about their result against Bangladesh. It is not that relevant for them, given that it does not have any major implications.
Bangladesh is in a must-win situation as far as their chances in the Champions Trophy 2025 are concerned. Bangladesh is already out of the ODI World Cup 2023 but has a lot to play for. Without Shakib Al Hasan, Bangladesh might not be that good for the match. But they have to ensure that they lose by a small margin or beat Australia and hope the Netherlands to lose their match by a big margin against India.

AUS vs BAN: Pitch Report
The match is set to be played in Maharashtra State Cricket Association Stadium, Pune. The venue has been very good for batting over the years. In the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023, teams have not been able to make the most of batting first at the venue. When they did, it helped them, big time. South Africa and England posted huge totals and defended them easily against New Zealand and the Netherlands respectively.
Pune is a stadium with smaller boundaries. Dew is unlikely to make its appearance, as it is an open stadium. So far in the tournament, batters have succeeded at the venue. But the spinners with accuracy can trouble them. Pacers would be hoping to use their variations. Teams winning the toss are likely to bat first, as chasing huge targets is not easy at the venue.
