ENG vs BAN, ICC World Cup warm-up: Defending champions England face Bangladesh in their second warm-up game of the ICC World Cup 2023 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. After their first practice fixture against the hosts India was washed out, England would be hoping for some game time before they kick start their title defence against 2019 runners-up New Zealand on October 5. The India vs England match was also slated to be held in Guwahati but rain played spoilsport without a ball being delivered on September 30.
On the other hand, Bangladesh are coming off a win over Asia Cup finalists Sri Lanka. Tanzid Hasan’s 84 and fifties from Litton Das and Mehidy Hasan Miraz guided the Bangla Tigers to a seven-wicket win. Ahead of the England vs Bangladesh game, here is all you need to know about the Barsapara Cricket Stadium’s Pitch report.
