Five takeaways from the England-Bangladesh series

England vs Bangladesh
England finally ended Bangladesh’s winning streak in ODIs

#5 Adil Rashid's ODI surge

Adil Rashid, England
Rashid proved to be a real handful for the Bangladeshi batsmen

Similar to Stokes, Rashid seemed to be going nowhere with his bowling in ODIs. Moeen Ali had almost booked a spot in the One Day setup which meant Rashid only got chances on turning surfaces as the second tweaker.

In Bangladesh, Rashid picked up two four-wicket hauls and impressed with his turn and flight. That he was a talented leg-spinner was beyond doubt, but the performances at International level did not really portray his real potential until now. He dismissed Bangladesh's key middle order batsman, Mahmudullah in each of the three ODIs and also picked up crucial wickets right through the series.

He ended the series with 10 wickets in 3 games though his economy was on the higher side.

The fact that the pitches in India will suit his leg spin is a huge boost for England. Rashid has a lot of tricks up his sleeve that can prove to be a handful for Indian batsmen.
