Bangladesh T20 team captain Shakib Al Hasan won the toss and decided to field first against England. Before the start of the match, there was a discussion that two new faces in the Bangladesh team may debut today but instead of two, today one has made his debut and that is Tawheed Hriday.  Bangladesh have fielded a good XI against England today if they can keep England between 130 and 140 runs then I think Bangladesh will have a chance to win this match today.

England vs Bangladesh

Toss won by Bangladesh and decided to bowl. Bangladesh have made a good decision to chase the target. The pitch is something neutral, both batting and bowling will be good based on the player performance. England have got the best batting line-up, starting from Phil, Butler, Malan, Duckett, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes. Bangladesh too have the best squad which makes the match more competing.

Bangladesh have been able to match themselves in ODI cricket but in T20 cricket they have not been able to match themselves in that way so far. No matter how strong the squad declares, at the end of the match they leave the field with a chest of disappointment. However, if we say that the confidence of Bangladesh's batting lineup is determined, then Shakib Al Hasan, Liton Kumar Das, Afif Hossain and Nazmul Hossain are calm. If they can give their best game properly then I think this match of Bangladesh against England will be a fighting match. But if we consider the comparative aspects, England will be much ahead of Bangladesh in this match.

England is very strong in T20 format, and this time their squad is complete with players who missed previous matches due to injury. BTW, for Bangladesh I heard that Rony Talukdar will be playing his first match after a gap of 8 years. He played one T20I match back in 2015 against South Africa (scored 21 runs in that match) and never got another chance. And this time during the Bangladesh Premier League, he performed well for Sylhet Strikers and as a result the selectors were forced to consider him for the national team.

The average scoring in Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium is around 160 runs and this looks to be high scoring match.

The first T20 match between Bangladesh and England is going to start today. Two young cricketers may make their debut for Bangladesh today. One is the opener Tawheed Hridoy and the other is the spinner Tanveer Islam who performed well in the recently concluded BPL. Tanveer Islam's debut may be as a replacement for Nasum Ahmed.  But England and their best XI will definitely play against Bangladesh today. Because they lost to Bangladesh in the last ODI match, England will definitely want to start with their first T20 win against Bangladesh.

Instead of having Decision Review System (DRS) to challenge the wide calls from umpires, why can't the BCCI ask the third umpire to call them? Already the no-balls are being called by the third umpire, and the on-field umpires don't need to worry about bowlers overstepping. This can be extended to wides as well, which will take away a large part of the burden form the on-field umpires. When the technology is available, then it should be used. On the other hand, if DRS is used on such occasions, then it will only result in wastage of time.

Another 200+ game. Wow. These ladies are seriously delivering some great games right at the beginning of the tournament. RCB looks like they might chase down the target since they still have players like Perry etc who can bat well.

Also, I just noticed the new DRS rule regarding wides and no-balls which is an excellent call by the BCCI.

Women's Indian Premier League (WIPL) is an excellent opportunity for players to showcase their abilities. Team collaboration between foreign players can also enhance player's tactics, resulting in a better performance overall. Following the participation of this domestic competition allows cricketers from all over the globe to be added to a team, which is crucial for the growth of the women's cricket. WIPL authorities should be thank of their continuous efforts to support the growth of women's cricket. Although it won't happen overnight, but gradually women's cricket will also be leading the world like men's.

Actually, some of the uncapped players like Shreyanka Patil (RCB), Kanika Ahuja (RCB) and Saika Ishaque (MI) did quite well with the bat and ball (there are a couple of more) and on the other hand capped players like Deepti is disappointing with the bat so far. Another name is Renuka Singh, i consider her a fine bowler but she's going in a different direction.

Overall batting performance is not up to the mark (Capped players) if we leave Mandana, Shaifali, Jemimah and Harman. Richa Ghosh has a bright future and clean hitter of the ball so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and a long rope.

@Haunebu pointed out an important aspect. You countered his point with Men's team example. I'd say In professional sports, being athletic is also very important. It's not related to skill at all but endurance, it reflects clearly when you are chasing the ball or running between the wickets, these are important parts as well.

Being a skilled batter or bowler is a necessity but at the same time, if you are athletic on the field, it enhances your performance and 2-3 seconds difference can make a big impact in crunch moments like you can save runs, steal extra singles, can take blinder catch etc and if you are strong then can hit big too with the bat. We do have a fine example of Jemimah Rodrigues. She's not big so can't hit sixes much (although she's a skilled batter) but when she's on the outfield or running between the wickets she looks gorgeous.
