England vs Bangladesh on October 27

England and Bangladesh are set to cross swords in Match No.20 of the T20 World Cup on Wednesday, October 27 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The Three Lions, led by Morgan, made a thunderous start to their campaign after beating the West Indies by six wickets in Dubai. They bowled the Caribbean team out for 55 after which the batters chased the target down in 8.2 overs. The Tigers, on the other hand, lost to Sri Lanka by five on Sunday in Sharjah. Their batters did an excellent job, helping the team score 171 for four, but their bowling unit flattered to deceive.

Best economical pick – Mohammad Naim has been a breath of fresh air for Bangladesh at the top of the order, especially with Liton Das not able to get going alongside him. He is equally comfortable against pace and spin, which should hold him in good stead ahead of this fixture.

Top captains & vice captains – Shakib Al Hasan has been in stupendous form with the ball in hand in the ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup. The Magura-born cricketer is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament, having picked up 11 wickets from four matches. He also got two wickets against Lanka, but his efforts went in vain. Shakib can’t afford to drop his guard if Bangladesh wants to make a comeback. Jos Buttler has been a brute force for England in limited-overs cricket at the top of the order for quite a few years. He scored a magnificent half-century in one of the warm-up matches. Even against the West Indies, he smashed three fours on his way to a score in the 20s. The Bangladesh bowlers can’t afford to let him settle into a rhythm.

Smart pick – Moeen Ali put in a man-of-the-match performance in England's win over West Indies last week. Like the Windies, Bangladesh also has a couple of left-handers in the top order, which may force Morgan's hand into deploying Moeen's off-spin early in the innings. Adding his batting prowess makes him a good pick in your fantasy team.

Cautious Pick – Eoin Morgan has been woefully out of bat this year and many questions have been raised over his place in the national team. In seven T20I innings this year, Morgan accumulated just 82 runs at an average of 11.7.

My XI – Shakib Al Hasan (Captain), Jos Buttler (Vice-Captain), Moeen Ali, Mohammad Naim, Liam Livingstone, Jason Roy, Mustafizur Rahman, Tymal Mills, Adil Rashid, Jonny Bairstow, Mahmadullah
