So, there we go. The first 50 overs of the Champions Trophy is done. Bangladesh have laid down a challenge with 305 on the board. Tamim Iqbal's hundred was the standout, but England fought back well in the final five overs when 325 was on the cards. England's batting line-up will be confident of chasing this down, but the pressure of tournament quickly is much different.

Bangladesh have never made a 280-plus score batting first against England. In fact, they've only set a 280-plus target twice outside Asia, winning one and losing one. That win came against Zimbabwe in 2009. How will they fare today? Join is at 2.45pm for the second innings

49.6

Plunkett to Mosaddek Hossain, 1 bye, a scampered bye ends the innings, Plunkett followed the batsman who was all over his crease. Think that's good umpiring, so long as they are consistent, not to call wide because the batsman was outside leg

49.5

Plunkett to Mahmudullah, 1 run, short of a length, pulled behind square and the rapid Bairstow in the deep means no second

Siddharth: "Earlier we used to prepare card boards with some catchy line to grab attention of the camera, so we could be on TV. Today, we just need to submit the same catchy line as commentary feedback..." The modern way!

49.4

Plunkett to Mosaddek Hossain, 1 run, another pinpoint yorker, this is a good finish by Plunkett, can only squeeze it out to deep cover

49.3

1lb

Plunkett to Mahmudullah, 1 leg bye, follows the batsman, takes the pad and dribbles out to deep square

49.2

Plunkett to Mosaddek Hossain, 1 run, works a straight delivery through the leg side, deep square-leg fielder quickly on it

49.1

Plunkett to Sabbir Rahman, OUT, long-on has been busy today...short of a length, flat-batted down the ground and the fielder barely has to move. Batsmen didn't cross, either

Sabbir Rahman c Roy b Plunkett 24 (20m 15b 3x4 0x6) SR: 160.00

END OF OVER:
49 | 13 Runs | BAN: 300/5 | RR: 6.12

48.6

Ball to Sabbir Rahman, 1 run, shapes to go for the scoop again, Ball keeps it full at off stump, ends up ballooning off the face of the bat to third man...300 on the tins
