ENG vs AUS T20I Series 2024: England vs Australia 2nd T20I Match Prediction- Who will win today’s match between ENG vs AUS? 

Who will win today’s match between ENG vs AUS: The 2nd T20I match of the ongoing ENG vs AUS T20I series is a do-or-die situation for England, as they have lost the 1st T20I match in Southampton. For England, losing is not an option in the 2nd T20I, as Australia already has a 1-0 lead in the series. On the other hand, Australia can afford a loss but tries to win this match at any cost to seal the series. Australia seems to feed the same XI that won the match, which is obvious, while England may look to make some changes, especially in the middle order to prevent the collapse like the previous match. 

The 2nd T20I match of this series will be played at Sophia Gardens Cricket Ground in Cardiff, where fast bowlers get some early assistance from the pitch. So, it might not be possible to do what Head and Short did in the first T20I. However, it will be interesting to see if Travis Head can repeat his last match’s performance and seal the series for Australia or if England will stay alive to fight in the decider for the series win. Considering Australia’s recent form and England’s ability to make a comeback, it will be interesting to see who will win today’s match between ENG and AUS

ENG vs AUS Pitch Report: England-Australia T20I Series 2024

The pitch at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff offers a balanced surface ideal for white-ball cricket. Batters generally score big runs at Sophia Gardens, with an average first-inning score of 145. Fast bowlers benefit from the surface’s bounce and early moisture, which provide swing in the initial phase of the match. The toss can be vital, as teams that bat first have only won three of the last ten T20I games at Sophia Gardens.

ENG vs AUS Today’s Match Prediction: England-Australia T20I Series 2024

The AUS vs ENG matches are one of the toughest and most closely fought contests in cricket. However, Australia always has a slight edge over England in T20Is. Given the current ICC T20I rankings of both Australia and England, Australia has a little edge over England, as they are the 2nd-ranked side in T20Is and England is 4th. And upon this, Australia has a devastating opener and X factor in the form of Travis Head, who can win matches for Australia on his own. So the prediction for this match will be 60% in Australia’s favor and 40% in England’s favor. 

Australia and England Full Squads

Australia’s full-strength squad for the T20I series against England comprises of fourteen players, whereas England Cricket has selected fifteen players for this series. Below is a list of the players:
