Host England will take on Australia in the second semifinals of ICC World Cup 2019. The highly anticipated match dubbed as mini-Ashes will determine who will face New Zealand in the finals on 14 July.
In terms of form, Australia has been one of the top performers in the league stages, losing just two matches in nine games. They comfortably thumped England by 64 runs at Lord's during the league stage. Australia finished second in the table with 14 points in nine matches.
Australia could look to replace an out-of-form Glenn Maxwell with Wade, who has already hit two centuries with the 'A' team in his last four innings. Former captain Steve Smith might be pushed to No. 3 in the batting order for the all-important last four clashes.
On the other hand, England, they are also in good knock after back-to-back victories over India and New Zealand. England is unlikely to make any changes to the winning combination and they have got the firepower to tackle the Australian bowling lineup.
England has a settled side with the return of Jason Roy to full fitness and his fantastic opening combination with Jonny Bairstow. The bowling attack also looks impressive with the likes of Jofra Archer, Mark Wood, Chris Woakes and Liam Plunkett regularly among the wickets.
Fans can expect an exciting match between two arch rivals at the biggest stage in world cricket
