 Eng 123-4 (27 ovs) vs B'desh 275-7 | Scorecard

Bangladesh using their pacers to keep their spinners for the end when the ball gets a bit older and scoring becomes a bit more difficult.

However, the ploy of using the seamers has bagged Bangladesh another wicket. Rubel produces a peach as it bounces steeply taking Bell by surprise and the edge through to the wicketkeeper.

Bell walks back after a good innings of 63 from 82 balls to leave England in a spot of bother.

That wicket could turn out to be quite critical for England and captain Eoin Morgan has a huge task on hand to steer his team out of this current crisis.

Morgan falls into the trap perfectly as far as Bangladesh are concerned. The England captain ducks under a short ball but decides to have a go at the next one but picks out the fielder on the fence leg fence.

Morgan walks back for a duck as England slip further to 121 for four in the 27th over. Superb stuff from Rubel, a lot of aggression shown by the pacer and his double strike has put Bangladesh in control.

This is Morgan's fifth duck in 12 innings and his job would surely be on the line if England fail today.
