TOP 5 BAN vs ENG BETTING TIPS:
1. England’s total in the 1st over will be over 5.5
After the recent exit of Alex Hales; captain Jos Buttler and Philip Salt are likely to open for England in the upcoming T20I series. Both the wicketkeeper-batters are rated highly in white-ball Cricket and are set to cause some serious damage to Bangladesh’s bowling attack.
2. Total wickets in the match will be over 12.5
The conditions at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium of Chattogram have been pretty hostile for the batters. There is minimal assistance for batters throughout the game and they will be certainly challenged once again. We expect a minimum of 13 dismissals in Thursday’s electrifying encounter.
3. Bangladesh will be the team with the top bowler
Even though England appears to be the team with a stronger lineup overall, Bangladesh has a marginal edge when it comes to the bowling department. Bangladesh features a formidable bowling unit, which is well-versed with the conditions at Chattogram with skipper Shakib Al Hasan leading the chart.
4. Dawid Malan to score a fifty
Dawid Malan remained England’s pick of the batters in the recently-concluded ODI series in Bangladesh. Malan has notable experience of conditions in Bangladesh due to his stint with Comilla in Bangladesh Premier League. The southpaw will be a key batter for visitors in the approaching T20I series.
5. Sam Curran will be England’s top bowler
Sam Curran was named the player of the tournament in the T20 World Cup last year (November) following a dream outing with the ball. Bowling in tough phases for the team, Curran emerged as England’s bowling spearhead in absence of Jofra Archer. The southpaw would further eye on continuing his purple patch with the ball.
BAN vs ENG Betting Tips FINAL VERDICT:
To everyone’s surprise, Bangladesh and England have squared off only on one occasion in T20 Internationals. England managed to come out in the exact game, which occurred back in the T20 World Cup 2021. Jos Buttler’s England appears stronger than Bangladesh on paper and we back them to register a dominating triumph in the series opener on Thursday.
