Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza insists his team are not hoping rain washes out their Cricket World Cup clash against Australia on Saturday.
Cyclone Marcia hit Queensland on Friday, with the rain and winds throwing the World Cup encounter into doubt.
An A-League clash between Brisbane Roar and Melbourne Victory scheduled to be played in Queensland's capital on Friday night was postponed.
Rain could lead to Australia's clash against Bangladesh, to be played at the Gabba, either being shortened or deemed a no-result.
"We are not looking for it," Mortaza told a news conference on Friday.
"But definitely playing against Australia in Australia, feel like in Gabba it is a different experience. We'll have to see if the game is happening, if we can play good cricket in here.
"Definitely it will help in future against Sri Lanka, against New Zealand. It is disappointing for us.
"Also, if we can get one point, whatever is happening is happening for good so we don't mind that."
Mortaza described the rain in Brisbane as "frustrating", leading to uncertainty over selection and the length of the game.
Asked if his team's best chance of claiming an upset win was with a shortened encounter, Mortaza said Australia were even more dangerous in shorter formats.
"It is difficult to say. I mean a 20-over match Australia are even better I think so you can't say," he said.
"Also, you don't know how many overs you're going to play. It is also difficult to pick the right team as well so everything is going to be difficult."
