- Negate Mustafizur Rahman With The New Ball:
The Fizz, as well-wishers call him, is a pillar of strength for Bangladesh and has already piled up some serious numbers for himself in a brief ODI career.
With 43 wickets in a bare number of just 18 games, the left-arm pacer is surely Bangladesh’s trump card with the ball in England. The conditions are bound to assist him massively, as the overcast weather will aid swing both ways. We saw how lethal he was in his first spell against India in the side’s second warm-up game at the Oval.
Apart from that, Rahman is a skilful bowler who is known to strike frequently with the new ball right at the top. England, therefore must be wary of that and try to negate the first spell from the left arm pacer.
Jason Roy, who didn’t enjoy a good series against South Africa, in particular, must be patient while taking on Rahman.
