Today (February 22) an exciting match is going to be held between Australia and England in the group stage of the Champions Trophy. The match will start at 3 pm Bangladesh time at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

This match is considered part of the historical duel between Australia and England, where past statistics will also have some impact. So far, 161 matches have been played between the two teams, of which Australia has won 91 and England 65 matches. However, England's victory is slightly ahead in the history of the Champions Trophy, they have won 3 matches, while Australia has won 2 matches.

Australia has brought a weak team in this match. Their bowling unit does not have Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood, Marsh, and Stoinis, due to which the pressure on batting is high. A lot depends on the batting of Travis Head, who played a big role in Australia winning the trophy in the 2023 World Cup.

On the other hand, the England team is also not in the best shape right now, they were recently whitewashed in the ODI series against India. However, England captain Jos Buttler expressed hope for a fresh turn in this match and believes that the players' experience in Pakistan will come in handy.

Today's match will help to clarify a lot who will go to the next round from Group B.

This exciting battle between Australia and England here is going to be a new challenge for everyone, which will add a new chapter in the glorious history of the Champions Trophy.
