Mortaza: Australia were unlucky, while on the other hand, we are lucky to stay alive in the tournament. Not the way we like to, but we can't do anything. This point will help us a lot. We have to play a harder game. We recently beat New Zealand in Ireland, so you never know.
Smith: It was disappointing not to get game in today. We were heading down a pretty good path. Disappointing not to get a result. It is a virtual quarterfinal now. Tough match, but a simple equation. They were much better today, hit some good areas and challenged the Bangladeshi batsmen. All of them bowled extremely well to restrict them to 180. Little bit. Time in the middle is always valuable. Can't do much about the weather and now we have to move on. They were two left-hand batters for a long time and there was a strong breezy blowing as well. Head was also bowling well. I got Zampa on as soon as a right-hander came in.
The game has been abandoned.
20:17 Local Time: The rain is back and so are the groundsmen with the covers. Restart at 20:30 looks unlikely for now. The wait will have to continue.
20:12 Local Time: Restart at 20:30 local. It will be a shortened game, but we are awaiting the confirmation of the overs lost. The game has been reduced to 43 overs. The target for Australia is 172.
