ENG vs BAN Dream11 Prediction | England vs Bangladesh Match Preview | Fantasy Team & Team News
The current world number one team, England will face off against Bangladesh in the 12th Match of the ICC World Cup. England lost their last match against Pakistan despite the wonderful performances by both Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer, something which will affect their confidence and preparation moving onto this match.
Bangladesh is also not doing bad in this tournament either. They won their first clash against South Africa and looked quite synchronized against New Zealand. Tamim Iqbal and Soumya Sarkar will have to hold the fort and create a good partnership against the English bowling attack. One thing is for sure that England cannot underestimate the Bangladeshis coming into this
Both teams are currently at a record of 1-1 and would look to win this match to ease the pressure off of them. This match might make or break a team for the rest of the World Cup.

ENG vs BAN Dream11 Fantasy Team
Fantasy Picks from England
Joe Root | Eoin Morgan | Ben Stokes | Jofra Archer
- So far in this world cup, Joe Root is one of the highest scoring batsmen. In only two matches, the batsman has managed to hit a total of 158 runs, with a century and a half-century.
- Eoin Morgan performed well in the first match, hitting a half-century but fell short in the second match, going out for only 9 runs. If he will be able to bring his A game for the next match then England will have a great chance to win the match.
- In the first match of the World Cup versus South Africa, Ben Stokes went on to become the man of the match with 89 off 79 balls and 2 wickets in only 2.5 overs. He didn’t do well versus Pakistan but should step it up for this game.
- Jofra Archer has been phenomenal so far with the ball. It is the player’s first World Cup and in his debut world cup match, picked up 3 wickets with an economy of only 3.86.
Fantasy Picks from Bangladesh
M Rahim | M Hasan Miraz | Shakib Al Hasan
- The best performer for Bangladesh currently is Shakib Al Hasan. The veteran is playing out of his mind currently, having scored a total of 139 in 2 matches and also picking up 3 wickets. He is a key element for the Bangladesh squad.
- Mehidy Hasan has so far been one of the most economical bowlers for the Bangladeshis. He has maintained an economy of around 4.55 and taken 3 wickets.
- Mushfiqur Rahim comes in at number 4 for Bangladesh. His first game 78 was very impactful and hopefully, he can contribute in the game versus England.
