In the batting department, the onus will on the likes of Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root and Eoin Morgan to deliver the bulk of the runs.

Opening batsman Jonny Bairstow has been a prolific run-scorer for the side in limited-overs cricket.

Since May 2019, Bairstow is leading the batting charts for England in one-day internationals. He has accumulated 893 runs in 21 ODI matches at an average of 47.00 with three centuries and four half-centuries to his name. The team management will be hoping that Bairstow can produce big runs for the side at the top of the innings.

Joe Root return will bolster the batting resources for England for this one-day series. The 29-year old hasn’t played any white-ball cricket since February 2020. Despite that, Root has been premier batsman for the side in limited-overs cricket.

Moeen Ali, Jos Buttler and Sam Billings will make up the middle-order for England for this game.

In the bowling department, the onus will be on the likes of Jofra Archer, Chris Woakes and Mark Wood to make early inroads with the new-ball.
