ENG vs AUS Match Prediction, 1st T20I

Hosts England (ENG) will take on Australia (AUS) in the first T20I, at The Rose Bowl in Southampton, on Wednesday, September 11. Australia are coming off a comprehensive victory over Scotland in a three-match T20I series by 3-0. On the other hand, though the hosts won two out of three Tests against Sri Lanka, the loss in the third Test has significantly sifted the momentum away.

Ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024, Australia had whitewashed New Zealand by 3-0. They had a forgettable World Cup campaign but the team seems to have got back into the groove. On the other hand, England's tedious white-ball events have many questions about their prospects. They played two T20I series ahead of the T20 WC and lost by 3-1 to West Indies and won by 2-0 against Pakistan.
