That's all we have from the commentary box. Scotland vs Namibia coming up next. Till then it's ta-ta from me (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) and my fellow commentators Anurag Singh and Ninaad Dixit.
Eoin Morgan, England skipper- They are making very easy. They have adapted to the conditions very well and backed up very well in the field. They have taken centre stage in the two games we had in the tournament. I think it does.
Its a huge compliment to have our white-ball cricket come along. 2019 success has helped in T20 game as well. They have been fighting for places but hasn't been too far away. Crucial for Roy and Dawid to get some time. Jason is imposing at the wicket. Very difficult to set fields for him.

Mahmudullah, Bangladesh skipper- Definitely I think we are very disappointed with the way we batted. The wicket was very good to bat on. We didn't get any partnerships going. I think that we are lacking boundaries in the powerplay.
If we don't get good start in these sort of wickets its get difficult later on. I think I have mentioned in many interviews. We are much more skilled hitters than power hitters. I think we need to reaccess a lot of things, especially in batting.

Jason Roy, Player of the Match- That was a very special match for us. Had to back up our last performance. We came out firing with the ball again. I mean you grow up a little bit, a tiny bit. The start of my career there were sporadic T20s.
Nice to get into a bit of a routine of playing T20 cricket now. I guess you want to get to a good start for the team. It is hard to do so here. Managed to hit some gaps today. Its definitely a case of keeping wickets there and powering through at the back end. Playing spin is a part of my game that has improved a lot. Today was a big test, especially with twp spinners. Helped me with all the skills I learnt.

Arya: He struck 5 fours and 3 sixes en route to his knock of 61 of 38 deliveries to set up the platform for a convincing win for England. He was dismissed with England within touching distance of the victory target. Eventually, it was Jonny Bairstow and Malan who stayed there till the end to get England over the finishing line.
Earlier in the day it was an interesting call by the Bangladesh skipper Mahmudullah to win the toss and bat. The Bangladeshi batters could never get going. After collecting a couple of boundaries of Moeen Ali’s first over, the off-spinner adjusted his lengths very next over which yielded rich dividend as Litton Das and Mohammad Naim was dismissed in back to back deliveries.
Shakib Al Hasan also fell early courtesy a sensational catch from Adil Rashid at short fine leg. There was a bit of a partnership between Mushfiqur Rahim and the skipper Mahmudullah. Both played some impressive shots but the dismissal of Rahim at a crucial juncture of the game pushed Bangladesh to the backfoot from which they could never really recover.
A few lusty blows in the penultimate over from the blade of Nasum Ahmed of the bowling of Adil Rashid got Bangladesh over the 120 mark in the end. For England, Tymal Mills was the pick of the bowlers who bowled a stunning final over bagging a couple of wickets.
Arya: A ruthless performance by England yet again. A commanding victory over Bangladesh as they make it two out of two and look like the firm favourites to make it through to the last four from this tough group. The Bangladesh bowlers were always playing catch up after the paltry score of 124 and it needed a special effort from two of their best bowlers Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman to get the job done for their team.
The opening duo of Jason Roy and Jos Buttler started off in their own dynamic manner after settling for only 9 runs in the first couple of overs. The opening partnership yielded 39 runs in less than 5 overs before the dismissal of Jos Buttler at the hands of Nasum Ahmed.
Dawid Malan who was shielded in the previous game against the West Indies to get their Net run rate up was sent up the order in his usual position as he got some much-needed knock in the middle especially against some quality spinners. Roy on the other hand went from strength to strength and played some delightful shots in the process.
14.1 S Islam to J Bairstow
4 And that's the end of the game. Pulled hard by Bairstow and that will do nicely for England. Short of a length delivery from Shoriful Islam. Sits up perfectly for Bairstow, clears his front leg and swats that down the vacant deep square leg region and finds the boundary.
