However, officials are still confident of the match being played - even if limited to the minimum allowed 20 overs a side - due to the ground's famous drainage.

The Australian wicketkeeper said they could not afford to be caught off guard by a Bangladesh side boasting world No.1 all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan.

Especially if it is limited to the unpredictable Twenty20 format - the minimum number of overs allowed for a rain-hit match at the World Cup tournament.

Haddin said there was still plenty of room for improvement despite their thumping opening win over England.

And he believed they had to fix it fast against a hungry Bangladesh.

"We've got to make sure we tighten up a few things that came out of the last game and make sure we're ready to play," Haddin said.

"And especially with the weather around it's even more important to make sure we're ready to go whatever the length of the game.

"They (Bangladesh) are a very dangerous team."
