Bangladesh vs England, 1st ODI, stats for the game

Tamim Iqbal, who was injured during the previous series, is back in the squad and will skipper the Bangla Tigers. The players picked are in excellent form, having excelled in the recently concluded Bangladesh Premier League. Because they will be playing world-class bowlers, they have a good mix of bowlers and emphasise batting. England has won three bilateral One-Day International (ODI) series in Bangladesh, the most recent being a 2-1 victory in 2016. James Vince, who did not play in the last series against South Africa, is anticipated to start alongside Jason Roy.

Bangladesh will host reigning world champions England in a three-match One-Day International series beginning on Wednesday. Bangladesh seemed to be in good spirits after defeating India 2-1 in their last series. England, on the other side, has a poor recent track record, having failed to win a series in their last four bilateral ODI series. Bangladesh hasn’t lost an ODI series at home since October 2016, demonstrating how strong they are in their own country. They must remember that they have never won an ODI bilateral series against England. They defeated India 2-1 in their last series, thanks to some inspiring lower-order batting displays by Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

Pitch

The recently finished BPL competition demonstrated that the pitch in general aided the hitters, with batters being able to play over the line even in the later portion of their innings, particularly during nighttime games under lights. That being said, there is something for seam bowlers as well, as they are likely to get help off the pitch early in the innings with the new ball.
