Australia vs West Indies Live Streaming Info: Cricket Score; T20 WC 2016 Warm Up Match Preview – 13th March: Aussies will land their first step into the World T20 tournament whose main draw is to start in few days. As of now, it’s the warm-up matches scheduled for the teams. Today, Australia will play West Indies at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Before it, Aussies had beaten South Africa in a T20 series. (watch: Ireland vs Netherlands.)
Initially, Steve Smith and his men may experience some difficulties in playing at Indian grounds, but eventually, they will adjust to it. Moreover, Australian skipper is very confident that his men who have played IPL there know the Indian soil to some extent. It will help them to play the ICC T20 WC 2016.

Smith told ESPN Cricinfo, “We haven’t able to do in the right quantity as we had expected. We will try our level best to win the competition. We have the required experience as we have played a lot of T20. Thus, we will do the best of our ability.” (watch: Bangladesh vs Oman.)
He added, “Playing IPL will certainly help our players. Most of us know what to expect and what would be the conditions. We are excited to play in front of such a huge crowd in India.”
Australia has played less T20 cricket as compared to other teams after the ICC World T20 2014. After that tournament, they have struggled to score quite a few wins in the shortest format of the game. In the last series against India, they lost by 3-0 this year in their home.
Australia vs West Indies Live StreamingJosh Hazlewood said, “The team needs to improve to a significant amount to do well. We haven’t played as much cricket as other teams have done. But I think we can play better than most of them. We look forward to it.”
Aussies have got the benefit by boosting their confidence as they defeated South Africa in their last series. In the meantime, the Carribeans lost their first warm-up match against India. Darren Sammy and men will need to bounce back before the actual start of the tournament.
The openers of WestIndies will look forward to giving their team a better start just like what they did with India. However, they will need to hold their wickets from falling if they want to succeed in the game. As much as Gayle spends the time in the middle order, it will be beneficial for the team.
Australia vs West Indies Live StreamingCarribean bowlers need to increase the level of their game. Ordinary bowling will not help to define their success for sure. They are going to play competitive teams. First of all, the team needs to practice their basics right and play the regular game but not in pressure.
