Australia captain Aaron Finch won the toss and elected to field against Bangladesh in a crucial Super 12 clash for them in the Twenty20 World Cup on Thursday.
The Aussies have made a change from their previous loss to England with the addition of Mitchell Marsh for Ashton Agar.
Australia, who have won two of their three matches, need a win to boost their semi-final hopes and Finch said they want to “take advantage of any moisture” when bowling.
The Aussies are currently third in Group 1, two points behind South Africa and four points behind leaders England, but have Thursday’s game in hand.
Bangladesh have lost all their four matches and are playing for glory. He has brought back Mustafizur Rahman in place of Nasum Ahmed.
“It has been tough this tournament, we haven’t played to our potential and this is our last chance,” captain Mahmudullah Riyadh said.
“We want to play for pride and try to prove ourselves again.”
