The 2nd ODI match of England’s tour of Bangladesh, 2023 is scheduled to be held on Friday, 3rd March 2023 at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.

We know that England is on a tour of Bangladesh where they have to play three ODI and the same T20 matches. This tour of very important for England right before the start of the ODI World Cup. The conditions in Bangladesh and India are almost the same and it can be very helpful for England. The result of the first ODI match also confirmed this where England beat Bangladesh with a margin of three wickets. This was not a high-scoring match where just 400 plus runs were scored but it is also a fact that both teams performed well and both remaining matches will be very interesting.

Bangladesh is known to make pitches that favor their team as we had seen the previous year when they beat almost all teams in their home series but this time, we don’t think that this strategy worked for Bangladesh where they were beaten by the margin of three wickets and now they have to win both remaining matches to win this series against a strong team like England. This series is also very important for Bangladesh to get the best combination for ICC T20 World Cup. Bangladesh is playing this home series against England with its senior players and we are hoping that they will get a good combination for World Cup.

The batting order of Bangladesh was not good in the first match where they could manage to score just 209 runs and their full team came back to the pavilion in 47.2 overs. Remember that they won the toss and decided to bat first in the first ODI match. Litton Das and Tamim Iqbal open the batting inning for Bangladesh but failed to provide a good opening start. They also failed to build a good partnership in the batting inning. Najmul Hossain Shanto was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side with 58 runs to his name on 82 balls with the help of six boundaries. Mahmudullah also performed well and scored 31 runs while the skipper, Tamim Iqbal scored just 23 runs. The bowling unit of Bangladesh performed well but failed to defend a low target on the board and leaked the target of 210 runs in 48.4 overs. Taijul Islam picked three wickets while Mehidy Hasan Miraz performed well and picked two wickets in 10 overs against 35 runs.

England had also picked its best players for this tour of Bangladesh keeping the ODI World Cup in mind. The bowlers of England did their job well but we don’t think that the batsmen performed well even though they chased a low target on the board. England is now leading this series of three ODI matches 1-0 and we think that they will make a couple of changes in this match. We think that they will test their all players to get the best players for ICC ODI World Cup. The performance of the bowling unit was good and they send the full team of Bangladesh back to the pavilion with a total of 209 runs in 47.2 overs. Almost all bowlers from their side performed well.

England used six bowlers in the first ODI match and four bowlers from their side picked two wickets each. Jofra Archer was the most successful bowler from their side with two wickets to his name in ten overs against 37 runs. Mark Wood, Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, and Mark Wood picked two wickets each while Chris Woakes and Will Jacks picked one wicket each. The batting order of England is very strong but was struggling in the previous match. They chased a low target of 210 runs but they lost seven wickets and 48.4 overs for this. Dawid Malan was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side with a century to his name. He scored a total of 114 runs on 145 balls with the help of eight boundaries and four huge sixes. Will Jacks was the other batsman who put some runs on the board. He scored 29 runs while Adil Rashid remained not out after scoring 17 runs.

England had played 777 ODI matches right now with 391 wins to their name while they had lost 348 matches. Their 30 matches ended with no result and eight matches were tied.
