Teams have targetted England’s opening pair with left-arm spin. However, the strategy didn’t work for Bangladesh. Roy got going first ball with a cut shot for four off Shakib Al Hasan, before punishing Mustafizur Rahman for two fours on either side of the square. Jos Buttler went over Shakib’s head for the first six of the innings, but fell to Nasum Ahmed going for another big hit.

ENG beat BAN Highlights: That did little to affect Roy’s flow, as he and Malan continued to motor along. In the first innings, just as in their opening game, Eoin Morgan’s decision to throw the new ball to Moeen, the off-spinner, in the Powerplay worked well. While Moeen matches up better against the left-handers, it was right-hander Liton Das who fell to him first.

Das used his feet to come down the pitch and strike back-to-back fours in the first over, but fell to a straighter delivery when Moeen returned for his second. Attempting a slog sweep, he top-edged to be caught at deep backward square.

ENG beat BAN Highlights: The very next ball, Mohammad Naim skipped down the track but failed to middle the ball, handing mid-off a simple catch. Moeen’s new-ball partner Woakes then sent the in-form Shakib Al Hasan back, when Adil Rashid ran back from short fine leg to take an excellent catch.

Bangladesh were firmly on the back-foot after the first six overs at 27/3 when Mushfiqur Rahim and skipper Mahamud Ullah provided the Tigers a period of stability. Mushfiqur was especially strong behind square and the duo enjoyed a couple of good overs against the seamers, to add 37 in 22 balls.

ENG beat BAN Highlights: The introduction of the spin of Liam Livingstone broke the stand, with an England review confirming that Mushfiqur was trapped in front trying to sweep. Mahmud Ullah soon became Livingstone’s second victim when he was caught at backward point.

Both team captains at the toss

Eoin Morgan: We have been good at chasing, the wicket looks good, played here during the IPL. We need to adapt, no team changes for us. The scars of past (England’s loss against Bangladesh in 2015 ODI World Cup) motivate you for the future. The focus today is what we can do.

Mahmudullah: We are going to bat first. The wicket looks good, so we want to put a good total. We have one change. Shoriful comes in for Saifuddin. We got three spinners playing, so we need to restrict them. This is a new game, so we need to play well.

Pitch Report by Dale Steyn

Doesn’t have much grass on it, looks a bit dry, so should be a good contest between the bat and ball. Spinners might get some help as it’s a pretty dry surface

Surprisingly, this will be 1st ever meeting of England and Bangladesh in any T20 International match. The match will be played at 3.30PM and will be LIVE Streamed on Disney+ Hotstar.
