4. Don’t let Joe Root bat through:
Bangladesh’s challenges against England’s terrorising battling lineup aren’t just restricted to the openers alone, but the presence of Joe Root at number 3 just compounds that. Root isn’t alien to playing the big knocks and once he is in and settled, chances are high that Root will convert his start into a big score. With 30 scores in excess of 50 in 83 ODI’s innings, Root should be seen as someone extremely dangerous for Bangladesh. This means a score in excess of 50 less than every 3 innings and Root is well on his way to becoming a global superstar. The Tigers must attack the Yorkshire batsman from the beginning and get him as early as possible. No need to mention, if Root gets his eye in, Bangladesh will be starting at a serious score.
