England will take on Bangladesh in the third and the final ODI of the series.
The English side leads the series after having clinched a thrilling third game
at Dhaka, and will now look to experiment slightly to allow the others a slight
chance. For Bangladesh, this is a good chance to win at least one game in the
series, which could also become their first ever win against England.

has not been often that the Bangladeshi side has been able to bat and bowl well,
together as a team and that is precisely what they did in the second game. The
batsmen were able to get together and score those 260 runs, which, under the
circumstances was a good total, whereas the bowlers were able to pick up wickets
at regular intervals.
Unfortunately for the side, they failed because of Eoin Morgan amazing
innings of a century, a knock that ended the stuffing of their winds. However,
the hosts can be very pleased with their effort and will look to repeat another
such kind of a score in order to try and give their bowlers another chance to
achieve a win.
Tamim Iqbal may have departed early in the second game, but he still remains
as the player to watch out for. With Imrul Kayes finding his form, it
will be really exciting to look out for both of them batting at the top of the
order, and the pair will try and provide the side with a good start.
The bowling department again relied on the left-arm spin of Abdur Razzaq
and Shakib al Hasan. Despite the others not coming to the party, what was good
to note was the manner in which the pair bowler, thus regaining some of the
lost touch.
For long now, the English has been dependent on the likes of Eoin Morgan and
Paul Collingwood, and the others will need to take ownership of the batting
as well. Kevin Pietersen has been struggling with his batting form, and
Craig Kieswetter has had a couple of bad games and could very well be replaced
by Jonathon Trott at the top of the order.
From amongst the bowlers, England's biggest worry will be the injuries to Stuart Broad and Ryan Sidebottom, both of whom may not play in the next game. This
will mean that the side will have to go in with at least a couple of bowling
changes, and this is exactly where the Bangladeshis could take advantage of
the situation.
