    Competitive start by Bangladesh, will be a good test of this new England side to see how we go about chasing these

    Jason Roy needs a score and I think it's a mistake not playing Bairstow.

    Agreed re Bairstow and suggests it's not possible to play your way into the team, there's not much more he could have done so now it's a case of waiting till either a batsman gets injured or a Roy failure...

    we'll knock these off with between 5 and 10 overs to spare, looks an utter road and think they'll really struggle with the ball

    No chance in his pre match interview Morgan was asked about Roy poor form, he replied that he expected Roy to be in the team for the whole tournament, so as not to put extra pressure on him regards getting dropped due to his loss of form, brilliant,sends a great message to squad members waiting for a chance to get into the team.

    Great knock by Joe Root, just listening to five live he might have an injury and could miss the next game.

    Hope he's ok but it could mean Bairstow gets a game.

    If anyone's interested there's a good run chase in the India v SL game. SL need 43 off 36.

    Was a great game, feels like the tournament's warming up a bit now.

    Would love to put the Aussies out tomorrow.

    Struggling a bit now, lost 3 wickets England for 35-3 with Roy, Hales & Root gone cheaply.

    Morgan and Stokes battering the Aussies, great to watch. Bangladeshis in the crowd loving it!

    Get in lads.

    Looked like it was going to be a horrible day at the start of England's batting, thank goodness for Morgan and Stokes.
