Both England and Bangladesh men’s cricket teams have played over 100 T20 internationals (T20I) so far. However, the two teams have only crossed paths just once in the shortest format of the game.

England are also the two-time world champions. They won the ICC Men’s T20I World Cup in 2010 and 2022. Bangladesh, meanwhile, haven’t won the silverware yet. 

The only time England and Bangladesh faced off in the T20Is was in the group stage of the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in UAE. England won the match by eight wickets.

The two teams will go head-to-head in the three-match T20I series in March 2023. Before the series, let’s look at all the Bangladesh vs England T20I records.

Lowest team total

Electing to bat first in the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup group match, Bangladesh could not keep the scoreboard moving and were restricted to 124-9 by a top-quality English bowling attack. England went on to win the match by eight wickets.

Highest individual score

English opener Jason Roy’s blistering knock of 61 runs off 38 balls in the 2021 Men’s T20 World Cup group match is the highest individual score by a player in England vs Bangladesh T20I matches. Roy scored his runs at the strike rate of 160.52.

Mushfiqur Rahim scored 29 runs in 30 balls in the same match, which is the top score by a Bangladeshi batter against England.

After going wicket-less in his first two overs against Bangladesh in the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup group match in UAE, seam bowler Tymal Mills took three wickets in the next two overs to finish with the figures of 3/27 in four overs. Mills bluffed Mahedi Hasan with his variation on the first ball of the 18th over and then sent back Nurul Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman on the final two balls of the 20th over.
