CWC2023 : England roars back with 137 win over Bangladesh, Malan , Topley shines

 



Bangladesh, who started their World Cup campaign with a win against Afghanistan, lost in the second match.  On the other hand, defending champions England, who lost the first match, tasted their first victory in the competition.  Jos Buttler defeated Shakib Al Hasan's team by 137 runs in Dharamshala on Tuesday.



 Shakib won the toss and decided to field first.  His decision didn't work very well.  England scored 9 wickets for 364 runs with aggressive batting.  In reply, Bangladesh's innings ended with 227 runs.  Dawid Malan led England's innings in Dharamsala.  His and Jonny Bairstow's opening partnership scored 115 runs.  Bairstow was dismissed for 52 off 59 balls but Malan looked unstoppable at the other end of the wicket.  A sparkling innings of 140 runs came from his bat.  He hit 16 fours and 5 sixes.  Joe Root joined him at number three.  The former England captain played a dazzling  innings of 82 runs off 68 balls.  He decorated his innings with 8 fours and 1 six.  Although Jos Buttler (20), Harry Brook (20), Liam Livingstone (0) did not get runs, the English did not have any difficulty in aiming for big runs in front of Bangladesh.


 None of the Bangladeshi bowlers could control Malan or Root's aggression.  Mehdi Hasan took 4 wickets for 71 runs.  3 wickets for 75 runs by Shariful Islam.  Taskin Ahmed and Shakib got 1 wicket each.



Bangladesh's innings faced a batting disaster after going down to bat with a target of 365 runs to win.  Tanzeed Hasan (1), Nazmul Hossain Shanto (0), Shakib (1) and Mehdi Hasan Miraj (8) were dismissed one after the other.  Bangladesh lost 4 wickets for 49 runs and fell under pressure.  After that, opener Litton Das and Mushfiqur Rahim, who dropped to number six, took the lead of the innings.  Litton scored 76 sparkling  runs off 66 balls.  Hit 7 fours and 2 sixes.  Mushfiqur's 51-run innings came from 64 balls.  Their fifth wicket stand was 72 runs which however  could not meet the needs of the situation, dropping to number seven, Towhid Hridoy scored 39 runs.  Although he spent 61 balls.  As a result, his innings reduced Bangladesh's chances of winning.  The rest of the batters could not do much.  Bangladesh's innings ended in 48.2 overs.


 England's bowlers used the Dharamshala wicket very well.  Topley took 4 wickets for 43 runs at the top.  2 wickets for 49 runs by Chris Woakes.  Sam Curran, Mark Wood, Adil Rashid and Livingstone took one wicket each.
