BAN vs ENG Match Preview

On Tuesday afternoon, England and Bangladesh will face off in Match 7 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup in Dharamsala. England, the 2019 World Cup champions, got off to a bad start in the tournament, being thrashed by 2019 runners-up New Zealand by 9 wickets with 82 balls remaining in Match 1. England will have been very disappointed by their big defeat to New Zealand on Thursday and they have already lost half as many games as they did throughout the entire 2019 tournament. Bangladesh had not won any of their previous four One-Day Internationals (ODIs) prior to their victory over Afghanistan, so the victory was critical for improving the group’s confidence as well as getting their tournament up and running.

Topmost Picks for BAN vs ENG Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Bangladesh 

• Najmul Hossain Shanto – the 25 year old had not scored a half-century in ODI cricket before the start of this year. However, he comes into this match with two centuries and six fifties already in this format in 2023.
• Shoriful Islam – the left armer delivers the ball with good pace and will get swing through the air. Expect him to pitch the ball up and look to encourage English batters to drive early in their innings.

Top Picks – England

• Joe Root – with over 6000 ODI runs to his name, a run of poor scores was never going to be enough to bother the former England Test skipper. Root has hit 16 ODI centuries in this format.
• Mark Wood – the experienced quick bowler had not been seen in an international match since the end of the Men’s Ashes before his appearance on Thursday. He will look to blow away the Bangladesh batters with his pace alone.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for BAN vs ENG Dream11 Team:

Jonny Bairstow(VC), Joe Root, Jos Buttler(C), Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Shoriful Islam, Mark Wood

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for BAN vs ENG Dream11 Team:

Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Jos Buttler, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan(VC), Mehidy Hasan Miraz(C), Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Shoriful Islam, Mark Wood

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Jos Buttler, Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Vice-captain – Jonny Bairstow, Shakib Al Hasan

Wicketkeeper – Jos Buttler

BAN vs ENG Probable Winners:

This looks like being a very exciting game between Bangladesh, who have looked a much better ODI side in recent years, and England, who were very poor in the first game of their World Cup defence. We are expecting England to bat out their 50 overs in this game if they bat first and to produce a much stronger total, although Bangladesh’s bowlers will not make it easy for them. England’s bowling is their weak point at the moment but we predict that their batters will score enough runs to get them to a winning position in Dharamsala. We are backing England to win. Considering the team combination, England is expected to win this match.
