England will face Bangladesh in the 20th match of the T20 World Cup. Sheikh Zayed Stadium will host this match at 03:30 PM. In the first match, England beat West Indies for 55 runs by 6 wickets.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, despite scoring 171 runs in their first innings, lost their first match to Sri Lanka. Their bowlers will have to be on a better track against the formidable England batting in Abu Dhabi.

The pitch in Abu Dhabi has generally been good for the batsmen, but as the game progresses, it becomes two-paced and assists the slow and sluggish bowlers. For England, their spinners in the form of Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali took six wickets between them against the West Indies and should be a threat to Bangladesh.
The captain winning the toss may opt to bowl first as chasing has been the most preferred option in the tournament so far and we can see it continue in this match as well.
Bangladesh need to challenge their senior players and make their presence felt in this match against England.
