Dawid Malan scores a genuinely brilliant hundred to haul his side to victory in the first ODI of the three-game series in Bangladesh
There must have been so many occasions as this game edged nervously towards a conclusion and English wickets continued to fall that Bangladesh thought it was destined to be theirs. Instead it belonged to Dawid Malan. In World Cup year every match becomes an audition and Malan aced this one, scoring a genuinely brilliant hundred to haul his side to victory in the first ODI of this three-game series.
There were several excellent performances from the home side, with the seamer Taskin Ahmed compelling and constantly threatening with the ball – but in truth England would have won this match with relative ease but for their own indiscipline.
