The 3rd T20 match of England tour of Bangladesh, 2023 is scheduled to be held on Tuesday, 14th March 2023 at Shere-E-Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.

Bangladesh had bounced back strongly after losing the ODI series and now had won the T20 series 2-0. They have a golden chance to whitewash the world champions of T20 cricket. Bangladesh had also been lucky in this T20 series as they won the toss in both previous matches and their bowlers did a great job. England is a strong team of T20 cricket but had totally failed to give the best performance in both matches played against Bangladesh. Remember that England is playing its very first bilateral T20 series against Bangladesh.

Bangladesh had outclassed England in each and every department of the game in both matches. The way how their bowling unit performed in this series is just amazing. We saw the same in the previous match where they leaked just 117 runs against the strong batting order of England. It is also an interesting point that Bangladesh used eight bowlers in the previous match. Mehidy Hasan Miraz was the most successful and highest wicket-taker from their side with four wickets to his name in four overs against just 12 runs. The skipper, Shakib Al Hasan also performed well and picked one wicket in three overs while he was charged for 13 runs. Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, and Hasan Mahmud also performed well and picked one wicket each in the previous match.

Nasum Ahmed, Afif Hossain, and Najmul Hossain Shanto were the bowlers who failed to pick any wicket. The performance of the batting order of Bangladesh was not very good but they chased the target of 118 runs with seven balls and four wickets in hand. Rony Talukdar and Litton Das opened the batting inning for Bangladesh but failed to provide a good opening start and both openers came back to the pavilion with a total of just 27 runs. Remember that just three batsmen of Bangladesh could manage to enter into the double figures. Najmul Hossain Shanto was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side who remained not out till the chase of the target after scoring 46 runs on 47 balls with the help of three boundaries. Mehidy Hasan Miraz was the other batsman who put some runs on the board. He scored 20 runs and smashed two huge sixes while Towhid Hridoy scored 17 runs.

The champions of T20 cricket had totally failed to give the best performance in Bangladesh. Not only they had lost the series but also have the threat of whitewashing. They have to win this match at any cost to avoid a clean sweep. The batting order of England had totally failed to give the best performance in both matches as the most recent match is a big example of it where they could manage to score just 117 runs and their full team came back to the pavilion in 20 overs. The batting order of England is very strong and experienced. They have the best batsmen in the world like Philip Salt, Dawid Malan, Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali, Ben Duckett, and even Sam Curran. The batsmen of England had totally failed to adjust to the conditions of Bangladesh.

Ben Duckett proved the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side with 28 runs to his name. He faced 28 balls and smashed two boundaries during his inning. Philip Salt also performed well and put some runs on the board. He scored 25 runs while he faced 19 balls and smashed three boundaries and one huge six. Moeen Ali scored 15 runs while Sam Curran scored 12 runs. Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler are the main batsmen of England but they totally failed to give the best performance in both previously played matches. The bowling unit of England also failed to give the best performance. They give a bit of a tough time to the batsmen of Bangladesh but failed to defend a low target on the board and leaked the target of 118 runs in 18.5 overs. Remember that they used seven bowlers where Jofra Archer proved the most successful and highest wicket-taker from their side with three wickets to his name in four overs against just 13 runs. Sam Curran, Moeen Ali, and Rehan Ahmed also performed well and picked one wicket each while Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, and Chris Jordan were the bowlers who failed to pick any wicket in the previous match.
