ENG beat BAN by 106 runs | England vs Bangladesh, Highlights And Cricket Score 12th ODI Match - Commentary

Thus, one could say that England is in firm control of this game. 387 is not going to be easy for the Asian Tigers to chase down. They will need a special knock or two from their batsmen. We will return for the chase in a while.

Jason Roy, the star of the innings for his 153 not out is down on the sidelines giving an interview. Roy says it was good fun and he just wanted to redeem himself for the last game. On being asked if there was a change in game plan when spinners were bowled early to him, Roy tells that there was a change in game plan as they did not allow them to take early wickets as teams have been looking to get early wickets against them. On the pitch, he says there is something on the pitch especially in the start and that's why they were nudging it around here and there at the start.

The bowling of Bangladesh bore a sorry look to it. There was no great performance and they were made to look pedestrian by the English batsmen. Every one who bowled went for over 6.5 RPO! Not a good day at the office. Time for an interview.

It started pretty sedately for England though. They played out Shakib Al Hasan in his initial spell and went after the other bowlers. Jason Roy was terrific and timed almost all the balls he attacked from the middle of the bat enroute to his ton. He first added a century stand with Bairstow and then a half-century stand with Root. He went past 150 but fell when one felt that he would easily scale a double ton. That though did not mean there would be relief for Bangladesh as Jos Buttler carried the mantle ahead and smashed the bowlers to all parts in his own fifty. Good hands from Morgan, Plunkett and Woakes meant that the score would end up being par 385!

What a power-packed batting performance this has been from England. They have just gone on rampage and put on a massive, massive total here. It even looked at one stage that they may scale 400 but they will not worry about that too much. 386 is huge and after being put into bat, Eoin Morgan could have asked nothing more from his men.

Full on the pads, Buttler flicks it uppishly to the right of deep square leg. Soumya Sarkar runs on that side and takes a good catch. End of a very good innings from Buttler.

Review time! Buttler could be gone first ball here if the original not out decision is overturned. He has been rapped on the pads but to the naked eye it felt the ball was going down leg. Bangladesh though decide to review, will they get what they want?

Jos Buttler is the new batsman in.

Mohammad Saifuddin to Joe Root. OUT! Chopped on! Slower delivery has done the trick here. It is outside off, Root looks to flat-bat it over mid off but he gets a big inside edge and it goes on to hit the leg pole.

PITCH REPORT - Michael Holding is the pitch analyst for today. He says the ground here is a mirage and this wicket is always green here in Cardiff but it's not as green as usual. Informs that they like to leave a bit of grass in the pitch here. He further adds that the fast bowlers will think there will be lateral movement but he reckons there won't be any such movement. Holding thinks there will be a lot of runs on the board today unless something magical happens.

England skipper, Eoin Morgan does not feel it is an issue to bat first as the surface is devoid of grass and he hopes the Sun stays out so that they do not have problems while batting. Informs that Liam Plunkett has been picked as the extra pacer as the straighter boundaries are shorter here and the spinner could find it difficult. The English skipper feels that it was a bad day against Pakistan but they did play well against South Africa and hopes they can play well today. Eoin says that it is always nice to spend time with family and friends between games and it is possible as this is a home World Cup.

Bangladesh skipper, Mashrafe Mortaza says that the pitch was undercover for a few days and he hopes there should be some movement early on. Informs they are sticking with the same team. Further adds that it was a close game in the previous one and they are looking to get over the line this time. On record against England he says that it can play as a factor but he also insists that they will have to play well today.

TOSS - Eoin Morgan has the coin in hand. Up it goes and lands in the favour of Bangladesh. BANGLADESH OPT TO FIELD FIRST.

A warm welcome to Match 12 of the World Cup 2019 between England and Bangladesh in Cardiff. The hosts would look to improve their bowling as their bowlers were smashed all around the park by Pakistan. They have to stick to their line and lengths properly today. Jos Buttler, Joe Root and Jofra Archer will be their key players. On the other hand, Bangladesh would look to put a strong performance against the hosts. Coming to their batting, they would want their openers to play a major role today. They have a good bowling attack but they would look to improve their fielding especially from the last match. We are all set for an exciting encounter. Stay tuned for the pitch report and the toss.
