Bangladesh v England: Moeen Ali says hosts could crack under pressure
England’s Ben Duckett, right, plays a shot, as Bangladesh’s wicketkeeper Mushfiqur watches the ball during the third one-day worldwide cricket match in Chittagong, Bangladesh, Wednesday, Oct. 12.
Buttler was found guilty of “using language or a gesture that is obscene, offensive or insulting during an worldwide match”. With the rain finally relenting and allowing for a full match, Bangladesh set about posting a strong score for the conditions.
England have ended a two-year home series winning streak for Bangladesh after beating them by four-wickets in Chittagong.
“We know it will take them a bit more time to get over that kind of stuff”. We have to be on the lookout to make sure it does not distract us from the way we want to play.
Whether England can beat Bangladesh depends on how well they can bowl and play spin.
England couldn’t recover from the position before they were all out for 204 runs in 44.4 overs, despite the best efforts by captain Jos Buttler, who scored the highest 57 runs for the visiting side.
The home side’s skipper Mashrafe Mortaza and Sabbir Rahman were also fined 20% of their match fee following the incident.
“To come here – a pretty young and inexperienced team – to win in Bangladesh, who have had success in their recent series, I thought we played really well but with room for improvement as well”. You should see the warm-ups, like the football, he’s probably the most fiery out of all of us.
“We left it open in the second game but took it right to the end and won it comfortably in the end”, Man of the Series Stokes said.
The weather forecast indicates the likelihood of medium to heavy rainfall in Chittagong on Wednesday.
Match referee Javagal Srinath fired a broadside across both team’s bows ahead of what promises to be a firecracker of a series decider in Chittagong tomorrow.
Bairstow and Tamim clashed when they shook hands with the former claiming he was shoulder barged, but video evidence appeared to show he refused to release the Bangladeshi batsman’s hand.
But just when it seemed that Bangladesh could collapse after a good start, Mushfiqur Rahman and Mosaddek Hossain put their hands up and made the seventh-wicket stand count.
The way in which we react and what we might say in those heated situations is what the ICC are trying to crack down on and rightly so.
Buttler’s dismissal was not met with the same vitriol as earlier in the week as he and Stokes had put victory within England’s grasp, which was secured as Chris Woakes (27 no) capitalised on being dropped by Imrul Kayes at slip on 17 with a sweet maximum over long-off.
