The premier pace bowler and the leader of the Aussie pace attack was a bit rusty against the Kiwis in Australia's tournament opener. He was overshadowed by the meticulous Josh Hazlewood but would be an important cog in Australia's bowling attack in the games to come.

With the overcast conditions, Starc should be the biggest threat to Bangladesh. His ability to bring the ball back into the right-handers and generate skiddy bounce will be vital at The Oval.

Record against Bangladesh

Starc is yet to play an ODI against Bangladesh which further compounds the woes for the sub-continent side.
