Bangladesh v England ICC World Cup Match Report
Set 226 for victory, Bangladesh slumped to 169 for eight before an unbeaten 58-run stand between Mahmudullah (21) and Shafiul Islam (24) powered them to 227 in 49 overs.

England have now been involved in five thrillers at the World Cup. First they just beat the Netherlands, then they tied with India. That was followed by a loss against Ireland and a thrilling six-run win over South Africa. Their latest defeat means it is likely to be win or bust in their final group match against the West Indies.

Bangladesh celebrate their thrilling win.

England coach Andy Flower will once again be pulling his hair out after his team twice threw away commanding positions. Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes gave the hosts a good start with a 52-run stand but once the former was run out for 38, Bangladesh stuttered to 73 for three with Junaid Siddique and Raqibul Hasan following soon.

Kayes went on to score 60 and his 82-run stand with Shakib Al Hasan (32) put the Tigers back on course.

However, a needless run out saw Bangladesh go from 155 for three to 169 for eight. Kayes, Shakib, Mushfiqur Rahim, Naeem Islam and Abdur Razzak all departed for the addition of just 14 runs as Ajmal Shahzad (three for 43), Graeme Swann (two for 42) and Tim Bresnan (one for 35) tightened the screws for England.

As Bangladesh’s hopes of a victory diminished the fans started to stream out of the stadium, but many of them were forced to turn around as Shafiul smashed a couple of boundaries shortly after his arrival

That swung the momentum back in the home team’s favour. England had no response and the Tigers run out victors.

Although the bowlers did well to take England so close to victory, questions will once again be asked about the batsman.

The loss of wickets at regular intervals meant that they restricted to 225 all out after being put in to bat.

A partnership of 109 between Jonathan Trott (67) and Eoin Morgan (63) provided most of the runs on a difficult batting surface as Bangladesh’s spinners strangled England through the middle overs.

England had slumped to 53 for three inside 17 overs as the top order struggled with the low bounce. Andy Flower’s ‘secret’ replacement for Kevin Pietersen at the top of the order turned out to be no surprise at all as Matt Prior opened the innings alongside captain Andrew Strauss.

After a slow start, Prior was out in foolish circumstances, wandering out of his crease while Mushfiqur Rahim appealed for a stumping off Abdur Razzak. Rahim quickly pulled a stump out with ball in hand to ensure that Prior was out at the second time of asking.

Strauss and Ian Bell fell shortly after to leave England in a spot of bother, but Trott batted steadily - as is his fashion - and Morgan looked like he’d never missed a game of cricket as he went about compiling a half-century on his return to the side.

England looked on course for a winning total on a pitch that is expected to get increasingly difficult to bat on, but then Morgan top-edged a sweep shot and was caught at deep square leg.

That sparked a slow but steady collapse as Trott holed out to long-off during the powerplay and Ravi Bopara slapped one straight to cover.

The last seven England wickets fell for 63 runs as Bangladesh’s bowlers took advantage of the slow pitch and were well backed up by their fielders.

	AJ Strauss*	c Junaid Siddique b Naeem Islam	18	31	2	0	58.06
	10.3 143.9 kph, what a catch from Siddique! What a catch! Strauss went back to flash a cut, it rocketed towards slip at shoulder height and Siddique was rock solid snaffling the chance. Crowd have gone ballistic 39/2
	MJ Prior†	st †Mushfiqur Rahim b Abdur Razzak	15	20	2	0	75.00
	7.1 130.9 kph, gone! What a bizzare dismissal, Prior has had a brain fade. It drifted down the leg side, Prior missed it and drags his back foot. Rahim takes off the bails and Prior is just safe, but then he stays out of his crease and Rahim shows brilliant awareness to pull the stump out of the ground to complete the stumping a second time. Brainless from Prior, superb from Rahim 32/1
	IJL Trott	c Junaid Siddique b Shakib Al Hasan	67	99	2	0	67.67
	43.4 140.9 kph, gone! That was on the cards...pressure building, Trott tried to go straight down the ground but could only pick out long off. Well bowled and reward for keeping the runs down 182/5
	IR Bell	c Naeem Islam b Mahmudullah	5	23	0	0	21.73
	16.4 81.0 kph, Bangladesh alive again! What a soft dismissal. Bell chipping a length ball from around off stump gently to midwicket. He walks off shaking his head, doesn't make good viewing. Return to the bad days of Bell but dream start for Bangladesh 53/3
	EJG Morgan	c Imrul Kayes b Naeem Islam	63	72	8	0	87.50
	38.4 85.0 kph, magic for Bangladesh! Brilliant catch has brought them back into the game. Imrul Kayes running in from deep fine leg and diving to scoop the ball inches from the turf. Morgan got just too much top-edge on a sweep and it was enough to end a mighty comeback innings 162/4
	RS Bopara	c Naeem Islam b Abdur Razzak	16	22	1	0	72.72
	44.5 81.3 kph, another goes in the Powerplay...Bopara's struggle is over as he backs away and slaps it straight to cover. He couldn't play the finishing role today 195/6
	GP Swann	c & b Shakib Al Hasan	12	8	2	0	150.00
	46.4 gone...Swann's reverse hit brings his downfall as he skies it very high and Shakib steadies himself underneath the catch 209/7
	PD Collingwood	run out (Mahmudullah)	14	13	0	0	107.69
	49.4 from Rubel Hossain, gone...all out, England don't see out 50 overs. A low full toss is pulled into midwicket, the fielder races it and with a strong throw hits direct 225/10
	TT Bresnan	c Shafiul Islam b Rubel Hossain	2	2	0	0	100.00
	47.3 134.5 kph, gone! England falling away at the end as Bresnan swings at a low full toss and sends a simple catch to backward point. Bresnan waited to see if it was above waist height but it's fine 215/8
	A Shahzad	b Shafiul Islam	1	3	0	0	33.33
	48.1 gone! full, straight, Shahzad had a swing and missed. Superb finish to the innings for Bangladesh. Not very clever from Shahzad 217/9

	Tamim Iqbal	b Bresnan	38	26	5	0	146.15
	8.4 139.1 kph, silence in Chittagong! Crowd dumb struck as Bresnan strikes! Fullish length but Tamim was hanging back and just played across the ball a touch. It burst through and onto the stumps 52/1
	Imrul Kayes	run out (†Prior/Shahzad)	60	100	5	0	60.00
	30.6 from Collingwood, What's happened here?! Kayes gifted his wicket. They've gone upstairs for the run out but he looks well short. Oh dear, that's not what Bangladesh needed. Shahzad sent in a rocket throw from deep square, but there was no need to even chance the second. 155/4
	Junaid Siddique	run out (Anderson)	12	12	2	0	100.00
	12.2 from Bresnan, Is this gone?! Excellent fielding from Anderson who hits direct at the non-striker's end with a swivel and throw. This is mighty close. One angle is more clear than the other and Siddique seems short of the crease. Indeed he's gone. He played the ball into the leg side but was late responding to Kayes' call, while Anderson produced a pin-point throw 70/2
	Raqibul Hasan	b Shahzad	0	2	0	0	0.00
	13.4 134.9 kph, gone! That's a beauty from Shahzad. You can't play them. Pitched on off, held its line to beat the edge and ripped out off stump. Unplayable. 73/3
	Shakib Al Hasan*	b Swann	32	58	1	0	55.17
	35.6 84.6 kph, gone! There's the breakthrough, pressure tells and the captain goes. Shakib tries to sweep from well outside off and gets a bottom edge into off stump 162/5
	Mushfiqur Rahim†	c †Prior b Shahzad	6	20	1	0	30.00
	36.2 133.0 kph, gone! Maybe he won't. Shahzad strikes with another beauty. Like the ball to get Raqibul this one just straightens outside off to find the edge and Prior takes a fine low catch diving to his right 166/6
	Mahmudullah	not out	21	42	2	0	50.00
	Naeem Islam	b Shahzad	0	5	0	0	0.00
	38.1 138.5 kph, another gone! Beauty No.3 from Shahzad and it's an action replay of the others as it nips away late from Naeem who plays down the line. This time the off stump takes another blow 166/7
	Abdur Razzak	c Bresnan b Swann	1	5	0	0	20.00
	39.4 82.6 kph, gone! England have held a blinder, it's Bresnan at long on. Razzak tried to swing it high over midwicket, the ball went miles into the night sky and Bresnan tracked it all the way before diving full length to hold the chance. 169/8
	Shafiul Islam	not out	24	24	4	1	100.00
