DHAKA: England are now in good position as Bangladesh lost two early wickets in their crucial Pool A match of World Cup at Adelaide Oval Monday.

After the end of six-over, Bangladesh scored 17 for two.

Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes went to pavilion scoring 2 runs each. JM Anderson bagged both wickets.

Earlier in the day, England won the toss and elected to bowl first against Bangladesh.

A win for Bangladesh in the match would take side into quarter-finals, but England would hope to keep its World Cup campaign alive.

Almost four years to the day, driven by its unbelievably passionate fans, Bangladesh conjured a magnificent win against England in Chittagong. It wasn’t, however, enough to power victorious Bangladesh to the quarter-finals or scupper England’s chances of progressing to the knockout stage of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011.
