- Get Tamim Iqbal With The New Ball:
There is no secret behind the correlation of Tamim Iqbal impressing with the bat and Bangladesh piling up a big score. The opening batsman has been in some serious form at the top of the order and enjoys a good record in England previously.
Known to be a fluent stroke-maker, Tamim can set the arena ablaze if the ball comes on nicely initially. Bound to be England’s number one threat with the bat, the new ball bowlers will have to dismiss him early and cheaply at all costs.
In case the left-hander gets in and settles down, there could be some serious trouble for the hosts. The likes of Chris Woakes, who swing the ball away are England’s best bet of getting rid of Iqbal.
