Welcome to the Evening Standard’s LIVE coverage of the 2019 Cricket World Cup.
England look to pick themselves up from that defeat to Pakistan last time out when they take on Bangladesh this afternoon.
That 14-run defeat at Trent Bridge left the competition favourites with just one win from their opening two games with a tricky test facing them today.
Bangladesh beat South Africa in the opening game before a narrow two wicket defeat to New Zealand.
History is also on their side - having beat England in their last two World Cup meetings.
A little later this afternoon, Afghanistan take on New Zealand in Taunton.
