These were the exact words spoken by Josh Hazlewood after Australia's win over Namibia a few days back. That set tongues wagging with even the 'spirit of cricket' brought into play if Australia did go on to lose against Scotland. Could Australia throw away an international match just to spite their Ashes rivals?

England's win over Oman and Namibia has ensured that Scotland will have to win tonight if they're to go through to the Super Eights. That brings us to Australia. With teams not carrying points into the next round, they can afford to experiment, they can go into the game with a slightly weakened XI, but would they want to lose the winning momentum? Will a proud team that's recently won the Test championships and the 50-over World Cup titles go to the extreme to oust one of their potential threats for the T20 title? Several plots and subplots are interlinked with each other as the T20 World Cup reaches the shores of St. Lucia, the ninth destination of the tournament.

Australia have won the toss and have opted to field

St. Lucia is generally a balanced pitch. This time it looks like it will favour batsmen a bit more.
