England v Bangladesh: Cricket World Cup 2023 – dwell | Cricket World Cup 2023

Key occasions

thirty seventh over: Bangladesh 180-6 (Hridoy 33, Mahedi 7) Rashid replaces Topley, with Bairstow shifting to slide. Mahedi slugs a flighted supply to mid-on, the place Topley drops a comparatively easy two-handed catch.

Rashid can be in search of his first wicket of the event, although as with Wooden his rhythm seems to be positive. This has been a superb day for England – not simply because the consequence but additionally the performances of a number of key gamers who struggled in opposition to New Zealand.

thirty sixth over: Bangladesh 176-6 (Hridoy 32, Mahedi 4) Wooden is beginning to look scorching and bothered, so this may be his final over. He’d love his first wicket of the event nevertheless it doesn’t really feel as necessary because it did for Woakes earlier within the day.

Hridoy jumps inside a pointy quick ball, which ends up in an unsuccessful enchantment for caught behind, and there are simply two from the over.

thirty fifth over: Bangladesh 174-6 (Hridoy 31, Mahedi 3) No five-for for Topley, however he finishes an excellent World Cup debut with figures of 10-1-43-4. His new-ball spell of three for 18 in 5 overs, together with a peach to bowl Shakib Al Hasan, scuppered Bangladesh’s run-chase earlier than it had began.

Up to date at 08.11 EDT

thirty fourth over: Bangladesh 169-6 (Hridoy 27, Mahedi 2) Wooden – whose common velocity at present is a daunting 92mph – rams a bouncer previous Mahedi’s nostril. There’s no slip, which doesn’t impress the commentator Shaun Pollock, though Bangladesh have typically appeared strong sufficient when Wooden has pitched it up. Their downside has been the small matter of scoring runs. Wooden has terrific figures of 6-0-18-0, and 4 of these got here off the sting.

thirty third over: Bangladesh 168-6 (Hridoy 26, Mahedi 2) Topley is one wicket away from becoming a member of an unique membership: solely Vic Marks, Tim Bresnan and Steven Finn have taken five-fors at a males’s World Cup for England. Of these, solely Vic ended on the successful facet.

No fifth wicket for Topley in that over, however he does tighten England’s grip on this recreation by conceding solely a few rums.

Bangladesh’s subsequent recreation is in opposition to New Zealand in Chennai on Friday. England fly to Delhi to fulfill Afghanistan two days later, then they’ve virtually every week off earlier than a giant recreation in opposition to South Africa.

Up to date at 07.56 EDT

thirty second over: Bangladesh 166-6 (Hridoy 25, Mahedi 1) Wooden returns with a remit to blow away the tail. I’m undecided Mahedi counts as a tailender, thoughts: he has a highest first-class rating of 177.

Thoughts you, even Australia’s best didn’t get pleasure from going through Wooden this summer season, and Bangladesh can solely handle two singles. They’ve barely performed an attacking stroke in opposition to Wooden, presumably deeming it too nice a danger even when the required price is 11 an over.

Up to date at 07.55 EDT

thirty first over: Bangladesh 164-6 (Hridoy 24) That was the final ball of the over. Topley’s figures are delectable: 8-1-36-4.

WICKET! Bangladesh 164-6 (Mushfiqur c Rashid b Topley 51)

Mushfiqur tries to start out the Bangladesh cost in the direction of the end line and falls flat on his face. After a collection of low-risk singles, he all of the sudden slashed a brief ball from Topley straight to 3rd man, the place Rashid took a cushty catch. Mushfiqur goes for an honest 51 and Topley has 4 wickets on his World Cup debut. In spite of everything his damage issues, it’s a really good second.

Up to date at 07.50 EDT

thirtieth over: Bangladesh 160-5 (Mushfiqur 50, Hridoy 21) Mushfiqur drives Rashid down the bottom to achieve a wise half-century from 61 balls. He has a minimum of ensured that, if Bangladesh lose, their web run-rate shouldn’t be past salvation.

twenty ninth over: Bangladesh 155-5 (Mushfiqur 48, Hridoy 18) Hridoy clips a free supply from Topley for 4. There’s no swing now so this can be a very totally different recreation. With each run, these new-ball wickets look extra very important; which will develop into a theme of the event, though the jury is out for now after India’s win on Sunday.

Up to date at 07.40 EDT

twenty seventh over: Bangladesh 148-5 (Mushfiqur 46, Hridoy 13) Rashid is bowling properly now, utilizing all his variations. I do know it’s simpler to settle right into a rhythm when batters aren’t unsheating the lengthy deal with, however that is nonetheless an encouraging efficiency. That is solely recreation two and Rashid tends to enhance as a event progresses. Okay, possibly not in 2021 when he took 4 for 2 within the first recreation.

Up to date at 07.38 EDT

REVIEW! Bangladesh 146-5 (Hridoy not out 12)

Towhid Hridoy is given out LBW after taking part in round a googly from Rashid, however he evaluations right away and replays present a skinny inside edge.

twenty seventh over: Bangladesh 144-5 (Mushfiqur 45, Hridoy 10) Reece Topley returns rather than Woakes and goes around the wicket to the right-handers. Mushfiqur will get a much-needed boundary off his final ball, pinging a beautiful drive via further cowl.

twenty sixth over: Bangladesh 137-5 (Mushfiqur 39, Hridoy 9)

twenty fifth over: Bangladesh 135-5 (Mushfiqur 38, Hridoy 8) The pitch is getting extra awkward because the balls become older, and Woakes is taking the tempo off fairly a number of deliveries. This can be a good spell from him, 3-0-12-1 now.

Sri Lanka at the moment are 255 for 4 from 36 overs in opposition to Pakistan in Hyderabad. Sadeera Samawickrama goes effectively; he’s 62 not out from 53 balls. If it wasn’t for Hasan Ali, who took three wickets together with the rampant Kusal Mendis, Pakistan could be in even larger hassle.

Up to date at 07.23 EDT

twenty fourth over: Bangladesh 133-5 (Mushfiqur 38, Hridoy 6) That six from Litton Das apart, Rashid has bowled economically on a pitch that’s providing little flip. Two runs from his third over give him figures of 3-0-17-0.

twenty third over: Bangladesh 131-5 (Mushfiqur 37, Hridoy 5) Hridoy inside-edges Woakes vast of leg stump for a single. Wickets do wonders for a bowler’s rhythm, and Woakes is trying extra like himself. Bangladesh want 234 from 162 balls. As asks go, it’s fairly huge.

twenty second over: Bangladesh 126-5 (Mushfiqur 35, Hridoy 2) Rashid continues and is milked for 5 singles. bit of study on Sky Sports activities exhibits that Buttler took a few steps ahead earlier than that slower ball from Woakes, with out which the ball wouldn’t have carried, so he should have had a sign.

Up to date at 07.15 EDT

twenty first over: Bangladesh 121-5 (Mushfiqur 32, Hridoy 0) That was the final ball of the over, and Woakes’ figures are beginning to look an entire lot higher: 6-0-42-2.

Up to date at 07.31 EDT

WICKET! Bangladesh 121-5 (Das c Buttler b Woakes 76)

A double bowling change, with Woakes again on rather than Curran. I believed we would see Topley, who has been a a lot higher wicket-taking menace, and that’s why I’m not England captain: Woakes has made the essential breakthrough!

Litton Das thin-edged a slower ball via to Buttler and stood, head down, earlier than dragging himself off the sector. He batted masterfully to make 76 from 66 balls, however his wicket leaves Bangladesh in huge bother.

Up to date at 07.57 EDT

twentieth over: Bangladesh 116-4 (Das 74, Mushfiqur 29) Adil Rashid, one other bowler who had a nasty night time in opposition to New Zealand and sure I do know all of them did, replaces Wooden. After 4 singles from the primary 5 balls, Das clumps a slog-sweep to vast lengthy on for six. That is changing into a harmful partnership; Bangladesh are basically the place Eire have been when Kevin O’Brien began to go berserk in 2011.

nineteenth over: Bangladesh 106-4 (Das 66, Mushfiqur 27) When Mushfiqur first performed at a World Cup, within the West Indies in 2007, Sam Curran was eight years previous. Mushfiqur asserts his seniority with a few boundaries, a crashing drive via the covers and a really thick edge between level and backward level.

Up to date at 07.02 EDT

18th over: Bangladesh 96-4 (Das 65, Mushfiqur 18) Wooden continues to bowl with eye-widening tempo. Das and Mushfiqur are surviving comfortably sufficient, however something greater than that has been a wrestle. Wooden’s figures are 4-0-15-0, and the one boundary he has condeded got here off the sting.

“Precisely who’s granting recurrent Ashes experiences for souls today?” wonders John Starbuck. “Has the ECB or ICC been growing a brand new money-raising technique with an Elysian time loop?”

Look, they’ve received to compete with Main League Cricket by some means.

There’s one other World Cup recreation at present, and Sri Lanka are pumping Pakistan all spherical Hyderabad. Kusal Mendis, contemporary from a futile 42-ball 76 in opposition to South Africa, has simply fallen for a pulsating 122 from 77 balls. Sri Lanka are 229 for 3 after 30 overs.

seventeenth over: Bangladesh 93-4 (Das 64, Mushfiqur 16) Seems Sam Curran averages virtually 150 between overs 11-20 of Listing A video games, and he’s not trying very threatening right here. He’s not bowling badly; he’s simply extra harmful when the ball swings and/or when batters unsheath the lengthy deal with.

That’s not the case simply now, with Bangladesh are just about taking a single off each ball. Therefore Curran’s figures of 4-0-24-0.

sixteenth over: Bangladesh 87-4 (Das 60, Mushfiqur 14) Wooden’s first ball after drinks is edged quick and vast of slip for 4 by Mushfiqur. I’ve received nothing else for you, aside from possibly a few singles.

In the meantime, right here’s an necessary public-service announcement from our colleague Jim Wallace.

fifteenth over: Bangladesh 81-4 (Das 59, Mushfiqur 9) Curran bowls a large to Mushfiqur, the primary of the innings. Nothing a lot is going on in the meanwhile – Bangladesh are selecting up as many singles as potential to maintain the run-rate in single figures.

That’s drinks. It does really feel like England are cruising to victory, however then we mentioned the identical in 2011 when Eire have been 5 down and wanted 215 from the final 25 overs.

14th over: Bangladesh 74-4 (Das 56, Mushfiqur 6) Das geese underneath a scorching, 94mph bouncer from Wooden, whose rhythm seems to be pretty much as good as it’s did in the course of the Ashes. I’d cheerily promote what’s left of my soul to relive these seven weeks once more.

Mushfiqur additionally geese a bumper, then Das will get an inside edge simply vast of leg stump. That is some scorching scorching warmth from Mark Wooden.
