DHAKA: England won the toss and elected to bowl first against Bangladesh in the crucial match of Pool A of World Cup at Adelaide Oval Monday.
A win for Bangladesh in the Mondays 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.
