Match: Australia vs England, 2nd T20I | England Tour of Australia
Date: Wednesday, 12 October 2022
Time: 13:40 (GMT+5.5) / 14:10 (GMT+6)
Format: T20I
Venue: Manuka Oval, Canberra
AUS vs ENG Preview
- Returning after being hurt Jos Buttler’s excellent knock of 68 from 32 balls had a significant impact.
- England’s leading scorer was Alex Hales, who returned to international cricket after a three-year absence.
- For the Canberra T20I, Starc, Cummins, and Hazlewood are most likely to return.
Australia and England move across the nation to Canberra for the second game of the series, which started on Sunday night in Perth. With an eight-run victory in Western Australia, England started off its journey to Australia on the right foot. At 19:10 local time, the match begins at Manuka Oval.
We anticipate Australia to be more like England than what we witnessed in Perth because of the return of their best bowlers. They’ll be fierce competitors if they can bat with the same restrained aggression.
Even though England is peaking just in time for the T20 World Cup, fast bowler Mark Wood will likely be rested for this match. They are unable to take wickets with the true pace without Wood’s pace.
AUS vs ENG Weather Report
Canberra experienced nonstop clouds, a dip in temperature from 16 degrees to 13 degrees, and an increase in humidity.
AUS vs ENG Match Toss Prediction
On Sunday, Australia won the toss and opted to field first. We predict that both skippers will choose to bowl first if they win the toss today, despite the fact that they lost the game.
AUS vs ENG Pitch Report
The Manuka Oval’s first innings score averages 169 runs. This surface offers additional bounce. And the bowlers can use this to their advantage by using their pace and bounce to worry the hitters.
Australia Team News & Probable Playing XIs
After batting down at number four or three throughout the previous three games, captain Aaron Finch will bat at the top of the order in this game. Along with batsman Steve Smith and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, the hosts rested their entire frontline bowling lineup in Perth. All of these players should be back on the field for this game.

Australia’s Probable XI

England Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Despite scoring 3-34 on Sunday, we anticipate Mark Wood won’t play in this game. He has sustained numerous injuries throughout his career; thus, we anticipate England to rest him in this game in preparation for the T20 World Cup. Chris Jordan is likely to replace Wood in the starting lineup.

Australia is the favorite to win this match.
There are few options and both sides are evenly matched. Both England and Australia are the leading contenders for the 2017 T20 World Cup. Both teams have a good overall lineup with excellent all-rounders and seasoned T20 players who can single-handedly turn the game on its head. Australia appears to have a little advantage in terms of their bowling assault and will be our betting favorite to win this game with their key regulars returning.
