Probable Playing XIs
The probable playing XIs for the 2nd T20I between Bangladesh and Australia are expected to remain largely unchanged from the opening fixture, barring any last-minute tactical rotations or fitness concerns.
Because Australia leads the 3-match series 1-0, Bangladesh faces a must-win situation, whereas Australia is looking to seal the series ahead of the final game.
Bangladesh Probable XI
The Bangladesh’s lineup depends heavily on the recovery of regular skipper Litton Das, who sat out the 1st T20I due to a leg injury. If he remains unavailable, Towhid Hridoy will continue as captain.
Australia Probable XI
The Australia opted for a highly experimental, young team in the first match with an eye toward rebuilding their T20 framework. They are expected to stick with the winning formula.

Head to Head Analysis
Weather Summary
The weather forecast for the 2nd T20I match in Chattogram on Friday, June 19, 2026, indicates a high risk of rain interruptions during the game.
The day will see a maximum temperature of 30°C with a heavy real feel of 37°C due to extreme humidity hovering around 79% to 83%.
Weather Impact on Play
- DLS Factor: With passing light showers predicted during afternoon hours, groundsmen might be required to pull on the covers. Ground conditions could bring the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method into play to adjust targets if overs are lost.
- Toss Advantage: The heavy moisture and high humidity (climbing past 85% by evening) will create heavy dew under the floodlights later on. Teams winning the toss will highly favor bowling first to avoid handling a wet, slippery ball in the second innings.
- Wind: Southerly winds moving at 10 mph (16 km/h) will offer swing assistance to new-ball pacers like Shoriful Islam and Spencer Johnson.
