The World Cup 2023 is picking up pace, and we have quickly reached the seventh game of the tournament. England (ENG) is due to face Bangladesh (BAN) in the seventh match of the World Cup 2023. The match will take place at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Tuesday, 10 October, at 10:30 AM. Ahead of the match, here is a look at the top player picks, the important player stats, the top captain and vice-captain choices and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
England will be looking to recover quickly from the huge defeat that they faced in their first match. The defending champions were outclassed in almost all the sections in the previous match by the Kiwis. Moving into their second game, seeing how they go about their batting will be interesting. Will they persist with their all-out batting approach, or will they look a bit more conservative? It will be exciting to witness. However, the prime objective for Jos Buttler and his men will be to return to the winning ways as quickly as possible.

On the other hand, Bangladesh will try and ride on their momentum from the big win in the previous match and pull off an upset of sorts. The team looked well-rounded during the last game, and their bowling unit looked world-class. Shakib will continue his bowling form in this game and expect the same from his team-mates.
With one team needing a victory and another looking to continue their momentum, the stage is set for a fiery clash.

ENG vs BAN, Match 7: Pitch Report
It is a relaid ground at Dharamsala, and hence we have seen the outfield not being as it was before. The wicket was also not the same, and rather than providing pace and bounce, the pitch looked two paced and the spinners did a good job here. The same can be expected in this game, and 300 plus total looks a bit far fetched. The spinners will always be interested on this track, especially this being a day game.

ENG vs BAN, Match 7: Top Player Picks
Jonny Bairstow (ENG)
- The English keeper batter looked good in the first match. But Bairstow failed to go big in the game, and will be looking to mend his ways in this match.
Adil Rashid (ENG)
- In the previous match at Dharamsala, we saw the spinners getting help from the wicket. If the wicket behaves the same then Adil Rashid will become a very important pick for the match.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz (BAN)
- Time again Miraz is proving himself to be an invaluable member of the Bangladesh set up. He has turned out as a match-winner with both the bat and the ball and that makes him a very crucial pick for the match.
Shakib Al Hasan (BAN)
- In Bangladesh's first match, the skipper of the team changed the game with his bowling in the middle-overs. Shakib can be a vital player with the bat also and hence, he will be a very important pick for this match.
