England will take on Bangladesh at the HPCA stadium in Dharamsala for the 7th ODI of the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023.
England will take on Bangladesh at the HPCA stadium for the 7th ODI of the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023. The defending champions are at venue No.2 of 8 in a World Cup with a hectic travel schedule and expectations of going all the way. England is coming to the match after being belted around the park by New Zealand. On the other hand, Bangladesh is coming after outfoxing the Afghanistan team in both batting and balling departments. The Tigers were led from the front by their captain Shakib Al Hasan with 3/30 from 8 overs. Simultaneously, Mehidy Hasan Miraz also chipped in with a handy spell of 3/25 from 9 overs. Subsequently, Miraz also scored a brilliant half-century (57 runs) to take his side home.
Interestingly, Bangladesh had been a very painful thorn for England in the ICC World Cup 2015, Australia. Everyone remembers the heroic way in which the Tigers fought their way to oust England from the Quarter-final berth. However, English cricket has grown since then. England is now the defending champions of the trophy. Added to that, England has a very good and versatile batting order in their lineup. Naturally, an early see-off back home is highly unlikely. Nevertheless, back-to-back defeats in the opening matches is something that England would not want. However, for Jos Buttler, the recovery of Ben Stokes remains a key concern if England are to defend their title.
All matches of the ICC World Cup 2023 will air live on Indian television via Star Sports channels. Additionally, Indian viewers can also enjoy free live streaming of these matches on the Disney+Hotstar app and website. On the other hand, social media giant Meta has also partnered with the ICC for World Cup 2023 coverage on Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook and Threads. England vs Bangladesh starts at 10 am.
The head-to-head record tilts heavily in favour of the three lions. England and Bangladesh have faced each other in 24 matches. Out of this, England has won 19 times while Bangladesh has won only 5 times. On the other hand, when it comes to World Cups, both teams have met 4 times. However, over here both teams are evenly tied at 2 matches apiece.
