England will be squaring off against Bangladesh in the sixth warm-up match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. This high-octane clash will be held at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on Monday.

England are the defending champions. They arrived in India and rain played spoilsport in their first warm-up fixture against the hosts. India won the toss and opted to bat first but persistent rain meant that the match was abandoned without a ball being bowled.

Jos Buttler will be leading the English side and are one of the favorites heading into the World Cup 2023. They have got a number of match-winners on their side and will be looking to get some game time on Monday when they face Bangladesh in their second warm-up match.

Bangladesh had a very good start to their preparations for the World Cup 2023. They comprehensively beat Sri Lanka in their first warm-up game.

The bowlers did a fantastic job of knocking over Sri Lanka on 263, with Mahedi Hasan finishing with three wickets. In reply, Tanzid Hasan (84) and Litton Das (61) gave Bangladesh a solid start and skipper Mehidy Hasan Miraz remained unbeaten on 67 to take his side across the line in 42 overs.
