BAN vs ENG, Match 3: Top Five Picks
- Dawid Malan (ENG): Left-handed batter Dawid Maland struck a magnificent century in the series opener that helped his side clinch a hard-fought victory by three wickets. He scored only 11 in the second ODI but could be amongst the runs in the final match.
- Phil Salt (ENG): Opener Phil Salt has been disappointing in the two games, scoring only 19 runs. The exciting right-handed batter might get clicked in this fixture as he gears up for the three-match T20I series.
- Moeen Ali (ENG): Moeen Ali smashed 42 off 35 in the last match, which helped England reach 326. He has also picked up three wickets in the series as the all-rounder looks like a good pic for the dead rubber.
- Litton Das (BAN): Opening batter Litton Das has had a bad series so far as he amassed only seven runs in the first and bagged a golden duck in the second ODI. The right-handed batter would finally look to hit form in this clash.
- Tamim Iqbal (BAN): Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal got starts with scores of 23 and 35 in both games. The left-handed batter would hope to lead his side from the front by contributing with the bat and avoiding the whitewash.
