Womens ODI World Cup | Upbeat Bangladesh faces a stern take a look at in opposition to England

England will face Bangladesh for less than the second time in ODIs when the 2 sides meet within the Women’s World Cup on the Barsapara Cricket Stadium right here on Tuesday.

The first time the groups performed one another within the format was within the 2022 World Cup in New Zealand. With a 100-run win, England had booked its place within the semifinals of that version.

While an absence of historical past between the groups means no risk of drawing inferences, a glance into their wins within the ongoing event factors to victories earned in related style.

Both matches had been low-scoring affairs as England and Bangladesh bundled out their opponents for paltry totals earlier than chasing them down with out a lot problem.

In England’s 10-wicket demolition job of South Africa — arrange by the spin trio of Linsey Smith, Charlie Dean, and Sophie Ecclestone — openers Tamsin Beaumont and Amy Jones chased down 70 runs in 14.1 overs.

For Bangladesh, too, the Akter trio of Marufa, Shorna, and Nahida bowled miserly spells to limit Pakistan to 129, which was chased down in 31.1 overs, because of Rubya Haider’s maiden ODI fifty.

England’s middle-order is but to get a success within the centre, however the presence of skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt and Sophia Dunkley, who starred in that 2022 match, solely reinforces the facet’s batting energy.

For the Tigresses, the dearth of batting depth already places them on the again foot in opposition to the four-time champion. Past the highest 5, which incorporates captain Nigar Sultana Joty, there’s no participant who can threaten with the willow.

Having already performed within the spin-friendly Barsapara circumstances as soon as, the benefit shall be with England even earlier than the primary ball.
