Australia will take on Zimbabwe in Match 19 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, with both sides eyeing the Super Eight qualification. Australia defeated Ireland by 67 runs in their first encounter of the tournament. Although they are without the likes of some of the best T20 batsmen in the world, like Mitchell Marsh and Tim David, they still form a formidable batting lineup.

Zimbabwe, meanwhile, have emerged as a strong unit under the leadership of Sikandar Raza. They are also coming off a convincing win in their last outing as they won by 8 wickets against Oman, with more than six overs to spare. Their strength lies in a balanced bowling attack capable of using Colombo’s slow pitch, while the batting unit, supported by in-form top-order players, will look to strike against an injury-struck Australian team.
In the AUS vs ZIM H2H record, the Aussies are ahead in the tally as they have won two of the three matches played between the two nations. For the AUS vs ZIM Dream11 team prediction, the skipper of their respective teams, Travis Head and Sikandar Raza, are the perfect choice for Dream11 captaincy and should be a part of your lineup.
