On Tuesday, Bangladesh will have an uphill task as they will take on a formidable English side in the seventh group-stage game of the ongoing ICC World Cup. Bangladesh had a dream start to the tournament, securing an emphatic six-wicket victory over Afghanistan at the same venue. On the contrary, England were crushed by New Zealand in the World Cup opener in Ahmedabad and would like to gain two crucial points by winning this fixture. 

So, as the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala gears up to host the battle, let's see how its pitch is expected to behave throughout the game. 


HPCA Stadium Dharamsala Pitch Report

The surface at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala is hard, with a tinge of brown grass covering. As it's a day game, the seamers will get a hint of movement in the air and off the pitch early on with the new ball. Also, there will be some extra bounce, which the hit-the-deck pacers would love to exploit. 

Meanwhile, the spinners will also get some turn if they bowl with a big heart and toss the ball slowly through the air. With the sun beating down, the moisture will eventually be dried up, resulting in batting-friendly conditions at the venue. So, considering the track record, the toss-winner will likely opt to field first.
