 Eng 164-6 (36 ovs) vs B'desh 275-7 | Scorecard

Captain Mortaza brings himself back to bowl in the Powerplay. He has a huge shout for caught behind against Buttler turned down and after a brief discussion with keeper Rahim decides not to go for the review.

However, two balls later Mortaza strikes with the key wicket of Root with a beauty. The ball comes in with the angle, drawing Root into the shot before the late movement takes the ball away and also gets the edge. A top delivery from the fast bowler and England in deep trouble now at 163 for six in the 36th over.

Chris Woakes come into bat at No. 8. He edges the last ball but it falls way short of the fielder at first slip, who lets it go through for a single.

A wicket at possibly the worst time for England, at the start of Powerplay, and only some magic from Buttler can save them for a certain defeat.
