The performance of England's batsmen on such a pitch impressed me. The pitch was not batting-friendly. Even then, the England team scored 326 runs. England's collection was only 40 runs in the first 10 overs. 1 wicket was lost. England's collection in the last 20 overs was 169 runs. They collected more than 8 per over. After England scored more than 300 I was sure Bangladesh was going to lose this match. Bangladeshi batsmen do not have the ability to collect more than 300 on such a bowling-friendly pitch. The performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is already very erratic. They lost 2 wickets in the first over and fell behind at the beginning of the innings. Liton Das has lost form. His performance was poor in both matches. But today Shakib's performance was good enough.
Here I noticed that when the England team was batting, it seemed as batting friendly pitch but when the Bangladesh team was batting it seemed like a bowling pitch again. Basically the credit for the England bowlers. Sam Curran has given a special match to the England team. At the same time, Saqib Mahmood did not get any wicket, but he also made a great contribution. The two bowlers kept the Bangladesh team's run. The two bowlers consistently kept the Bangladesh team in a massive pressure. In conclusion, it can be said that good batting and bowling can be the arm by which any adverse conditions can be conquered.

Basically, Bangladesh did not play well at all. There is no excuse for Bangladesh to perform badly on the same pitch in which the England players are scoring freely. It's just a bad performance from Bangladesh, nothing else. If Bangladesh was able to perform better, they could get a lot closer to the target. Let's just hope that Bangladesh will be able to avoid the whitewash.

The biggest concern for Bangladesh is that most of the time the top order, especially the openers have failed Bangladesh. They have to fix that problem immediately.

There are no more good expectations about the Bangladesh team. Losing the series by losing two matches consecutively and they also the confidence of the audience. They had some mistakes in the first match but they looked helpless against the England bowlers in the second match. Overall this time is really bad for Bangladesh. There is one more game left in the ODIs where they are most likely to lose. The big failure of the top order is the main reason for losing this series. Especially Litton Das , he performed very badly in two matches.
