Australia were 100/2 in 11.2 overs when rain stopped play. Spinner Rishad Hossain picked both the Australia wickets. Australia won the match by 29 runs (DLS method).

In the second last match at the venue, South Africa scored 194/4. USA gave a tough fight and scored 176/6 against a world-class South Africa bowling unit. The Antigua pitch is definitely having a lot for the batters.
