Bangladesh triumphed over Ireland in the first ODI, proving themselves superior in all areas. The record-breaking score was achieved via aggressive batting. And the bowlers, especially the pacers, were a phenomenon. This follows their prior success in T20, where the pacers played an effective role in whitewashing England in T20. Now, Bangladesh is looking forward to keeping its playing style and winning the series today (March 20, 2023). Bangladesh vs Ireland 2nd ODI Preview The second match of the three-match series is scheduled to start at 2 pm on Monday, March 20, at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. However, there is a high chance of rain during that time. Also, there is a possibility of rain in Sylhet throughout the day. According to the forecast, the rainfall will be higher on Monday than on Sunday (March 19). A thunderstorm could be on the horizon, and the rain is set to become heavier after 6 pm, so the officials may find it difficult to finish the match on time. For Bangladesh, however, there is not much tension about the match being washed away. Tigers take a 1-0 lead in the series after winning the first ODI. If this match is washed away, the risk of losing the series will be eliminated. BAN was dominant in the first game of the series against IRE, and now they look to secure the trophy by securing a win in the second match. The team, led by Tamim Iqbal, put up a spectacular display, with Shakib Al Hasan's 93 runs off 89 deliveries and Towhid Hridoy's 92 runs off 85 deliveries leading the way. Mushfiqur Rahim also contributed to the success of the Bangla Tigers, as they posted 338 runs on board at the end of their 50 overs. So, if the second match takes place, Bangladesh will surely try to repeat the first’s match aggressive performance.

Neither their batting nor their bowling was successful in their last encounter, resulting in a 183-run loss. This Ireland squad comprise some young players with a lack of experience playing so many ODIs. However, with the ODI World Cup coming up, this is a major chance for them to become familiar with the environment and do well in subsequent matches. So, they will certainly try to improve their playing style in the upcoming matches. However, Ireland will have to overcome a few factors. Bowlers like Shakib Al Hasan, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, and Nasum Ahmed are a big challenge for any team touring Bangladesh. However, it was the Bangladesh pacers who did the main damage to Ireland with a good batting wicket at the Sylhet International Stadium. As Ireland did not expect such a condition, in addition to the spinners, now Ireland also needs to think about the Bangladesh pacers. Although Bangladesh is almost at full strength, Ireland is not getting their best all-rounder Joshua Little on this tour due to IPL. It has been seen over the years how much of a difference he can make, whether it's playing for Ireland or whether it's in franchise cricket. So, Little’s presence could have increased Ireland’s strength.

In the most recent match, Bangladesh put up an impressive total, which indicates that another high-scoring game can be expected. A score of 300 runs or more is considered a good one here, so whoever wins the toss should go bowling first. Players to Watch in BAN vs IRE 2nd ODI Shakib Al Hasan Shakib is a highly experienced all-rounder, and he is currently performing at an impressive level. In his last four matches in the 50-overs format, he has scored 234 runs, posing him a threat to the Irish team in their upcoming game. Ebadot Hossain Ebadot Hossain, the speedster, took four wickets in the previous match, totally destroying the Irish batting lineup. He can do the same in the second game too. Read More: Towhid shines on debut as Bangladesh post record total against Ireland Graham Hume Graham Hume became the first bowler of Ireland to take four wickets in ODI against Bangladesh. Apparently, Hume understood the Sylhet pitch better than any other Iris bowler. So, Bangladeshi batters will have to care about his bowling. George Dockrell George Dockrell was largely responsible for the Irish being able to extend their innings to 155 runs. The Irish innings came to a halt when Dockrell was bowled in the 30.5 overs of the innings by Ebadot. But, before that, Dockrell scored 45 of 47 balls. So, he might push more in the second match.

Read More: Shakib Al Hasan reaches 7000-run milestone in ODIs Final Words In the first match, the performance of the Bangladesh team was great. The Tigers' game began with a few wickets lost, but Shakib and Hridoy put on an impressive batting display, with Mushfiqur Rahim and Yasir Ali following the pattern with a particularly aggressive approach. The veteran players displayed a strong mentality in their batting. On the other hand, Ireland should have noted their mistakes and come back with great energy. So, it is expected that the BAN vs IRE 2nd ODI will certainly be a competitive game.

He achieved the milestone during the first ODI of the three-match series against Ireland in Sylhet today, when he scored 24 runs.

Ahead of the first ODI of a three-match series against Ireland in Sylhet, Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha warned against taking the relative newcomers lightly. Bangladesh has been a strong team in ODIs over the last five to six years, especially at home. They have only lost just one ODI series at home in the last seven years - the most recent one against England. Despite this impressive record, Hathurusingha emphasized that they are not taking the Ireland team lightly. "It would be dangerous to underestimate them. They are not an easy opponent in any regard. We are treating them as we would England," said Hathurusingha on Friday in Sylhet. Ireland beat the West Indies in their last tour of the Caribbean and have talented cricketers who can turn the match at any point. Bangladesh has played ten ODIs against Ireland, winning seven of them, with Ireland winning two and one match ending in a no result. Bangladesh has won all four ODIs played in Sylhet, and four out of eight innings in ODIs at this venue saw a total of more than 300 runs. This means that batters will have a great opportunity to demonstrate their abilities on the surface in Sylhet. The match will begin at 2 pm (Bangladesh time), and will be live through Gazi TV and T-Sports in Bangladesh.  Meanwhile, The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has implemented an online ticketing system for the ODI series. To purchase tickets, fans must first register on the BCB's online platform using their NID and a valid phone number. Additionally, physical tickets can also be purchased from designated booths located in Sylhet.    

The Bangladesh national cricket team will play another full series starting on March 18 with the first ODI. Bangladesh is going to play three ODIs against Ireland after blowing away England in T20. However, this will be Ireland’s first full series. All three ODIs will be played at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, and the first ODI will start at 2 PM on March 18, 2023. Preview of Bangladesh vs Ireland 1st ODI 2023  Ireland already played a practice match against the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) XI, and they understood the pitch condition in Sylhet. Ireland got a notable victory, with a moderate total, in their preparation match. In the Sylhet pre-match, the Irish defeated the BCB XI by 74 runs. After the morning rain, the ground at Sylhet International Stadium was soaked, causing the game to start late. Consequently, the match was shortened to 40 overs. The visiting team managed to score 255 runs after losing 7 wickets in their allotted overs. Curtis Campher's remarkable 75 runs off 50 balls was the top performance. Opener Paul Stirling scored 54 runs. While Ireland scored 53 runs in the opening pair, they lost one wicket by 100 runs. Gareth Delany put in a noteworthy performance, scoring 36 runs off 24 balls and bringing the total to 250. Rejaur Rahman Raja and Rishad Hossain each took two wickets, while Soumya Sarkar managed to take a wicket. Read More: Tamim, Mehidy uncertain for 1st ODI against Ireland  Among all batters, Soumya, the left-handed opener, put up a courageous effort with the bat, resulting in 37 runs. Despite this, the BCB XI was unable to withstand the pressure of the full 32.1 overs, as they were bowled out for 181 runs. This win will surely boost confidence in Ireland. On the other hand, despite losing the ODI series to England, Bangladesh has still had a great record at home. Other than England, they have not been defeated in a series over the last seven years. The first ODI against England was very close to being a win for Bangladesh, and to keep from being whitewashed, Tamim’s team got a victory in the last match. Although Bangladesh lost the 50-over cricket series, they were outstanding in T20. Shakib Al Hasan’s team completely defeated England by demonstrating their strength with both bat and ball. After this performance, Bangladesh will now play against Ireland. And Ireland seems to take up the challenge and attempt to win a few matches against Bangladesh. Additionally, Bangladesh’s main weapon, the spinners, is in top form. Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan, Nasum Ahmed, and Mehidy Hasan Miraz's spin bowling at home is a terror for any opponent. Bangladeshi spinners have previously shown their class to top-ranked batters. Against Ireland, it should be no exception.

Team News Reports from Cricbuzz indicate that wicketkeeper-batsman Zakir Hasan suffered an injury to his left thumb while practicing at the Sylhet International Stadium on Thursday afternoon. As a result, he was dropped from the ODI series against the Irish. Zakir was called up for the first ODI. However, it is speculated that it will take a minimum of three weeks for him to make a full recovery. Apart from Zakir, all other Bangladeshi players are fit and can play the first ODI. Rony Talukdar will play in Zakir’s place. BCB confirmed Zakir's injury and Rony's inclusion in a press release on Thursday. Opener Rony returned to the Bangladesh team after almost eight years with the last T20 series against England. He played in all three games during the spectacular whitewashed series of the world champions. He notched up 21, 9, and 24 runs, respectively, in three T20s. Though he failed to make a huge impact, Rony did demonstrate the necessary ambition for this tournament. Mahmudullah was not included in the first two matches of the ODI series, while Yasir Ali, Nasum Ahmed, and Shoriful Islam have all rejoined the national squad. Read More: Zakir ruled out of Ireland ODI series due to injury On the other hand, the Ireland cricket team is in good condition with no major injuries or absences and is predicted to field its most formidable lineup since the beginning of the first ODI.

Bangladesh are concerned about the availability of Tamim Iqbal and Mehidy Hasan Miraz ahead of the first ODI against Ireland on March 18 in Sylhet.  Mehidy suffered a blow to his eye during a practice session on Friday morning while playing football. However, a quick CT scan revealed that the all-rounder has no problem. Tigers captain Tamim is suffering from a fever and cold, and his participation in the first ODI is uncertain. Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha said Tamim may have a viral infection, and a final decision regarding his availability is yet to be made.

The Irish will play a three-match ODI series against Bangladesh in Sylhet. While Ireland has played plenty of ODIs and T20I, they have not had the opportunity to play the test format for a long time. Played only 3 Tests in the last five years after receiving Test status. The last match was played in 2019. By that time, the teams were introduced to the aggressive mentality in Test cricket. The Irish also want to play the same style of cricket. On the other hand, the Bangladesh team will go to Sylhet after the last T20 match against England on March 14. Previously Bangladesh team met Ireland 11 times in ODI and won seven of them, while two matches ended with no result. Changes Bangladesh Squad After the third ODI against England in Chittagong, BCB President Nazmul Hasan Papon has suggested that resting a few cricketers in the upcoming Ireland series could provide a chance for some of the freshers. This statement sparked a debate on which cricketers might be included in the rest list. Eventually, the names are revealed. Read More: Shanto storms up ICC T20I rankings with extraordinary performances against England BCB revealed the ODI squad for the forthcoming Ireland series in the absence of experienced national all-rounder Mahmudullah Riyad.

On Sunday, March 12, BCB revealed the selection of the 15 players who will take part in the first two One Day Internationals. Taijul Islam is also not included in the announced 15-member team.

Apart from these two changes, there are no surprises in the ODI squad led by Tamim Iqbal. Additionally, Yasir Ali Chowdhury and Shoriful Islam are back.

In 2016, England triumphed over Bangladesh in a three-match ODI series held in Dhaka and Chittagong. Despite losing a match in Dhaka, Bangladesh put up a valiant effort in Chittagong in 2016, but ultimately, England won the series with a 4-wicket victory in the last match. On the other hand, Bangladesh already lost the 2023 series before their third match in Chittagong on March 6. Bangladesh will aim to avoid a whitewash in Tamim Iqbal’s hometown tomorrow. However, England will want to give that opportunity to Bangladesh at any cost, as we have seen their performance in the last match. The third and final ODI of the BAN vs ENG series 2023 will start at 12 noon on Monday (March 06, 2023) at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong. Preview of Bangladesh vs England 3rd ODI Match in 2023 Bangladesh and England teams reached the port city of Chittagong to play the third and last ODI of the series. Although both teams reached there early on Saturday, neither team practiced. Both teams have done their last-minute preparations on Sunday (March 5). Bangladesh practiced at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium from 10 am to 1 pm, and England practiced from 2 pm to 5 pm. The English camp has confirmed the series by 2-0 by winning two matches of the three-match ODI series. The Tigers have lost the ODI series at home after seven years. Coincidentally, Bangladesh last lost their last ODI series at home to England in 2016. Read More: BAN vs ENG Series 2023: Bangladesh T20 Squad Analysis While Engldoesn’tsn’t have any pressure on their shoulder, Bangladesh will surely take the pressure to win the last match. At least a win can be a consolation for the team as well as the fans. Bangladesh don’t have any major changes in the team except for removing Shamim Hossain Patwari from the team. Shamim got a chance in the team on the evening before the second ODI against England. But he did not get a chance to play the match. However, the 22-year-old left-handed batsman is still on the team. England, on the other hand, seems to continue with their current playing XI. There were roughly two types of wickets in Mirpur in the first two matches of the Bangladesh and England ODI series. The first match saw the familiar form of Mirpur - slow, turning, uneven bounce wickets. In the second, it was much more batting-friendly. And England has adapted better than Bangladesh with both types of wickets. According to the condition and situation, Dawid Malan and Jason Roy scored two centuries and became the man of the match. On the other hand, in front of the English bowlers, Bangladeshi batsmen seemed to be foreigners on their own ground. Read More: Bangladesh-England series tickets to go on sale in Chattogram Sunday While all the England players got their expected performance, Bangladesh’s Mustafizur Rahman seems to be dim in this series. Not only the first two matches of the England series but Mustafiz has also been lost in ODIs for quite some time. But, no other Bangladeshi bowler has bowled as many overs (100.2) as him and has such a low economy rate (4.61) in the last year. Tomorrow will be Mustafiz’s another chance to do something for the country. Probable Squads for 3rd ODI in 2023 BAN vs ENG Series Bangladesh XI: Tamim Iqbal (c), Litton Das, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, Taijul Islam, Mustafizur Rahman.

Weather forecasts suggest no chance of rain and a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius with humidity in the 4 Bangladesh’s Dominance in Home Ground has Ended Although Bangladesh fought in the first matTamim’sim’s team could not compete against England in the second ODI. After England scored 326 runs for 7 wickets with opener JaRoy’soy’s century, Bangladesh was knocked out of the match. While there was a little hope in the run chase, it was also lost due to the failure of the top-order batsmen. After the top order collapsed, Bangladesh could not turn arouBangladesh’ssh’s innings stopped at 194 runs in 44.4 overs. In the first match, Chris Woakes’ bowling troubled the Bangladteam’sam’s top-order batsmen. Sam Curran took the new ball in the second match as Woakes was rested. Curran is known for swinging the new ball. And that swing became a disaster for Bangladeshi batsmen.

In a matter of moments, the Bangladesh team had lost three wickets for a mere nine runs, which is a far from ideal start for a team looking to reach 326 runs. After that, there was nothing else to talk about in the batting of the Bangladesh team except for Shakib-Tamim’sim’s partnership. As the partnership was broker, it was confirmed that Bangladesh lost the series as well as the winning streak in the home ground. Final Words Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium is a heaven for batters, leaving Bangladesh dependent on their bowlers to succeed. Will the Bangladeshi bowlers be able to sEngland’snd’s powerful hitters, though? Evidence from the past two matches suggests it will be a significant challenge for Bangladeshi bowleIndia’sia’s last performance here was also noteworthy, so it is possible to anticipate a couple of centuries tomorrow.

The Bangladesh squad were defeated in the opening ODI of the three-match series against England and are hoping to level the series by winning the second game. Tamim Iqbal's team is facing the English on Friday, March 3. The match will start at 12 noon Bangladesh time at Mirpur Sher-E-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. Let's take a look at the match preview, changes in the team, and probable players list of the 2023 BAN vs ENG 2nd ODI match. Preview of 2nd ODI Match of Bangladesh vs England Series 2023 Bangladesh cricket team is unbeaten in seven consecutive series at home ground. So, the Tigers have no other option except to win in the second ODI to continue that streak. That is why it was essential to win the first two matches in order to guarantee the series.. Earlier in 2016, Bangladesh got the taste of defeat in the last bilateral series at home to England. After that, the Tigers won seven ODI series in a row. However, Bangladesh’s beginning was not good. Bangladesh got a good start after winning the toss and batting in the first ODI. But without Najmul Hossain Shanto, other batsmen could not help much with the bat. Bangladesh lost all wickets lost in 47.2 overs and stopped at just 209 runs. Still, the team saw the dream of winning in Taijul, Miraz, and Shakib’s spin action. But Dawid Malan's brilliant century lead England to a three-wicket win. Read More: England aim to seal series against Bangladesh in second ODI England performed brilliantly in the first ODI according to their plan. England played a different plan on a wicket where India-Sri Lanka found it difficult. Clearly, David Malan's experience of playing in the Dhaka League and BPL for six consecutive years has come in handy. In addition to that, England's bowlers also played a big role with the ball. However, experienced Bangladeshi players for the Mirpur pitch could not impact. For example, Mushfiqur Rahim and Shakib Al Hasan are more experienced in this pitch. But they failed to live up to expectations. When they were both dismissed while attempting to slog spinners in the middle overs, the rest of Bangladesh's batting line-up had to readjust their strategy. Najmul Hossain Shanto was unable to capitalize on his first ODI fifty, and Mahmudullah was out playing cautiously. On the other hand, except for Malan’s knock, England did not have any significant achievements. Therefore, England will seek to boost their batting following Malan's substantial performance, while Bangladesh requires their batsmen to make the most of the beginning of their innings. The bowling from both sides was exemplary. Taskin Ahmed and the Bangladesh spinners gave it their all. Despite their efforts, the final three wickets escaped England, yet they successfully kept the opposition to a modest total. Read More: BAN vs ENG Series 2023: Key ODI Records, Who Holds Advantage in Records So Far Mustafiz’s magic is not working in Dhaka's pitch lately. So, Ebadot Hossain or Hasan Mahmud can be an alternative to Mustafiz in the second ODI. England did not keep Sam Curran, Saqib Mahmood, Rehan Ahmed and Reece Topley in the first match. It appears unlikely that Rehan will play due to his illness, but the team is predicted to rotate their players throughout the tour. No other team has been able to beat Bangladesh in a home series since 2015, and England is hoping to be the one to do so. If they can win tomorrow's match, they will be the only team to twice win a bilateral ODI series in Bangladesh since 2015. Change in Bangladesh Team Just before the second ODI against England, there was a sudden addition to the Bangladesh ODI team. Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) suddenly added Shamim Hossain Patwari to the team 18 hours before the match. This 22-year-old cricketer was brought in as a substitute fielder due to the probable injury of one cricketer. Read More: BCB adds Shamim to squad for second ODI against England Shamim, who has played 10 T20s for Bangladesh, has been called up to the first ODI team. Earlier, Shamim was also included in the first two T20 teams against the English. The second one-day team now has 15 members. The team for the third ODI has not been announced yet. However, Shamim’s performance was not very good in the last Dhaka Premier League, the domestic edition of the 50-over edition. He scored 285 runs at an average of 31.66 with 1 century and a fifty in 11 innings. But his main area of ​​strength, the quick runs, was reflected in his strike rate (103.63). But, the Chief Selector, Minhajul Abedin Nannu, explained to bdnews24.com that his batting was not a factor in Shamim’s selection to the team. Since there is a little concern about one team member's injury, Shamim may start as an extra fielder to help. As a fielder, however, Shamim has attracted attention in different ways. He has earned a reputation as one of the most talented fielders in the country.

Bangladesh’s Senior Batsmen Failed to Collect Big Score Bangladesh’s batting was not up to the mark at Mirpur Sher Bangla Stadium. The host batsmen could not make any impact against the English bowlers. Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid, in particular, gave Bangladeshi batsmen a tough time.
