After playing a thriller in the series opener, host Bangladesh will be hoping for a better show in the 2nd ODI on March 3 at Sher-E-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. It is a must-win game for the hosts as they lost the first ODI. Meanwhile, England will be hoping to clinch the series. Let’s take a look at the prediction for which team has an edge over the other.
Pitch Report:
The surface at Dhaka has been a pretty slow wicket and we can expect the dominance of spinners in the second game. Batters might make an impact, but they will have to spend some time at the crease to settle themselves first.
Team Analysis:
For Bangladesh, Najmul Hossain Shanto batted brilliantly and scored 58 runs in the 1st innings. Batting all-rounder Mahmudullah too made some crucial contributions with his 31 off 48 deliveries. Talking about the bowlers, Taijul Islam bagged three wickets, while Mehidy Hasan Mirza picked two wickets in the game. The side will hope to put on a better batting display as the bowlers did a brilliant job to trouble England batters in a low chase.
Meanwhile, the visitors bowled beautifully by restricting the host to 209. Jofra Archer, Mark Wood, Moeen Ali, and Adil Rashid, all bagged two wickets each. In response to Bangladesh’s 209, England had a horrific start as none of its batters could find the momentum. But it was David Malan’s 114 which helped England to secure a thrilling win.
Probable playing XI:
Bangladesh:
Tamim Iqbal (c), Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, Taijul Islam, Mustafizur Rahman
England:
Jason Roy, Philip Salt, Dawid Malan, James Vince, Jos Buttler (c & wk), Will Jacks, Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Jofra Archer, Mark Wood
