Defending Champions England and Bangladesh will face off each other in their 2nd match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 to be played at Dharamshala on 10th October. Jos Buttler and Co suffered a disappointing 9-wicket loss against New Zealand in the opening match of the tournament.
On the other hand, Bangladesh registered a comfortable 6-wicket win over Afghanistan. Star all-rounder Ben Stokes will not feature in the playing XI due to a hip injury. Shakib AL Hasan and Co would be familiar with the conditions as they have played at this venue.
