2017 ICC Champions Trophy - Captain's Corner - Five Tactics England Must Use To Beat Bangladesh 2

  1. Not Give Taskin Ahmed Easy Wickets In Between:

Apart from Mustafizur Rahman, Bangladesh has another gifted pacer in their ranks, in the form of the young and extremely energetic Taskin Ahmed.

Ahmed might not be as accurate and miserly as Rahman with the ball, but he surely is a serious wicket taker who can strike at the right time. 41 wickets in 27 ODI’s is a proof of his serious wicket-taking ability and his aggression is what often gives him the edge.

In games won by Bangladesh over the years, Taskin has often struck in the middle overs, which has dented the batting side’s hopes severely.

England needs to keep an eye on this aspect and ensure that the middle order isn’t tricked into throwing their wickets away against Taskin.
