Jason Roy after getting to his ninth ODI hundred.

Hello and welcome to Sportstar's live coverage of the World Cup 2019 match between England and Bangladesh at the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff.

Jason Roy and Jos Buttler starred with the bat while Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer blazed a trail with the ball as England humbled Bangladesh by 106 runs in Cardiff. Shakib Al Hasan waged a lone battle with a fine hundred but it wasn't enough in the end. That would be all from our side. Join us tomorrow for the big one: India vs Australia from The Oval. Until then, Cheerio!

Bangladesh needs 387 to win . We will be back with the run chase soon.

TIMBER! Saifuddin cleans up Root and the partnership has been broken. England have lost a second wicket against the run of play. Buttler has been promoted up the order.

================

TOSS UPDATE: Bangladesh has won the toss and elected to bowl.

England (Playing XI) : Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan(c), Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler(w), Chris Woakes, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, Mark Wood

Bangladesh (Playing XI) : Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Mosaddek Hossain, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mehidy Hasan, Mashrafe Mortaza(c), Mustafizur Rahman

Morgan : "Playing two spinners creates a bit issue there hence we are playing an extra seamer. Little bit of a blip, little bit of a bad day against Pakistan. Today, hopefully we will show that it is not something that is an issue. We played some good cricket against South Africa and hopefully we will play good cricket today."

Mortaza: "We will bowl first. This pitch has been under cover for the last two days. We would have liked to play an extra seamer, but we are sticking with the same team. Last match was disappointing but hopefully we will bounce back. We have to play at our best to beat this England team."

PITCH REPORT| "Not quite a lot of clay content, so the curator has to leave a lot of grass. Bowlers might think "lot of green grass, so lot of lateral movement" but it's nothing like that. You pitch the ball up initially but then if you get hit, you have the pull length back. Good wicket to bat on," observes Michael Holding.

Four years ago, Bangladesh beat England by 15 runs and eliminated the side from the 2015 ICC World Cup, thereby leading to England's major transformation in limited-overs cricket under skipper Eoin Morgan.

Here's today's preview: England completes World Cup circle against Bangladesh

England  will face the side which kick-started its transformation into a major threat in one-day internationals when the tournament host continue its World Cup campaign against  Bangladesh  in Cardiff on Saturday.

The Tigers condemned Eoin Morgan's men to a first-round exit at the 2015 edition with a 15-run victory in Adelaide.

At that point there was no longer any way of hiding England's white-ball woes and, with a home World Cup up next, then England and Wales Cricket Board director Andrew Strauss was determined the national side's limited overs form had to improve.

To that end, Peter Moores was sacked as coach, with Strauss bringing in experienced Australian Trevor Bayliss as his replacement.

Since that debacle 'Down Under', England has risen to to the top of the one-day international rankings.

But having started its quest to win a first men's World Cup with a 104-run thrashing of South Africa at the Oval, it heads into this weekend's clash on the back of a surprise 14-run defeat by Pakistan.

That match saw England lose its cool, with opening batsman Jason Roy and fast bowler Jofra Archer both fined for lapses in their conduct on the field.

Meanwhile if England was annoyed by some of Pakistan's 'verbals', there were times when the large contingent of fans for the sub-continental side -- a common sight even when England are at home -- also had an effect.

England all-rounder Chris Woakes, usually the most mild-mannered of cricketers, put his finger to his lips in a bid to 'silence' Pakistan supporters after taking a catch on the boundary.

It could well be a similar story at Sophia Gardens on Saturday, particularly as several players on both sides who featured in England's ill-tempered 2016 win over Bangladesh in Dhaka are likely to be involved again.

England fast bowler Liam Plunkett, who could be recalled after missing the Pakistan defeat, said his team-mates knew how to maintain their composure.

'The way they play'

“Pakistan is pretty good like that, they can get niggly. When they're on top they're good at doing it,” said the 34-year-old.

“Similarly Bangladesh and India, they're good at doing that, good at appealing quite a lot. It's just the way they play their cricket."

“But we've played in big competitions, guys have played around the world - at IPL (Indian Premier League) and Big Bash in front of big crowds -- it shouldn't be too much for the players.”

Bangladesh also heads into the weekend following a defeat by two wickets in a tense contest against New Zealand.

But Plunkett said the days when the Tigers was rank outsiders away from the sub-continent had gone.

“There's no real shock defeats in this competition,” he insisted. “We've already seen Bangladesh beat South Africa and that's not a shock defeat."

 

“They're a strong squad. I remember when they beat England way back when (in Bristol, 2010) and it was a shock defeat."

“I don't think them beating teams like South Africa is like that anymore.”

Adil Rashid bowled five costly overs against Pakistan and, given the leg-spinner's ongoing shoulder injury, England may decide to leave him out on Saturday.

For Bangladesh, a match at Sophia Gardens sees it back at the scene of one of its greatest triumphs -- a 2005 ODI win over Australia, then as now world champion, that is arguably the biggest upset in the history of international cricket.

Mashrafe Mortaza,  who played in that stunning five-wicket success, is now Bangladesh's captain.

He took heart from how Bangladesh had nearly defended a target of 245 against New Zealand, saying the team was in good spirits as they prepared to face England.

“I think they (England) are one of the biggest side in this tournament. It's not going to be easy, we knew that,” said Mashrafe.

“But again, if we can play our best possible cricket, you never know.”
