Defending champions England and Bangladesh will clash in Match 7 of the ongoing ICC Cricket World 2023 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on October 10.

England will be looking to make a comeback after suffering a humiliating defeat to New Zealand in their opening game of the tournament. On the other hand, Bangladesh are coming off a comfortable win over Afghanistan in their first match.

The team chasing has had more success compared to the teams batting first as per the total of four ODIs played at this venue.
