England and Bangladesh will lock horns for one final time in the three-match One-Day International series in Chittagong. England played with a dash of fearlessness to win the first game. However, the hosts played with a fair amount of resilience to pip England in the second ODI and level the three-match rubber 1-1.

If Ben Stokes and Jake Ball were the star performers for England in the first match, then Mortaza took his game to compelling heights with both bat and ball to pilot Bangladesh to a victory in the second ODI. Mahmudullah also played a vital role by composing a well-measured half-century.

The second ODI also saw a bit of drama between the two fiercely competitive sides. Jos Buttler's wicket during the match had led to frenzied celebrations in the Bangladeshi camp and both Mortaza and Sabbir Rahman were fined 20% of their match fees.

Unfortunately, showers are expected throughout the day. Hopefully, the rain gods will stay away and we can have another cracker of a match in Chittagong.

It looks like rain has relented for the time being and the match will start on time. England won the toss and opted to bowl. The hosts have picked an unchanged XI, while Billings and Plunkett replace Roy and Willey for England.

Teams:

Bangladesh (Playing XI): Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Sabbir Rahman, Mahmudullah, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Shakib Al Hasan, Mosaddek Hossain Saikat, Nasir Hossain, Mashrafe Mortaza(c), Shafiul Islam, Taskin Ahmed

England (Playing XI): Sam Billings, James Vince, Ben Duckett, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler(w/c), Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Liam Plunkett, Adil Rashid, Jake Ball

With the ball seaming around, the duo of Tamim and Imrul made a cautious start. Only when Jake Ball banged it short, Tamim cracked the pull shot to collect a boundary. Woakes and Ball have been a trifle short in helpful conditions for seam bowling.

With Ball and Woakes struggling to hit the right lengths, Plunkett was introduced into the attack. From the other end, Moeen Ali was given the ball. The allrounder immediately extracted turn off the pitch. Now, the Bangladesh camp would be watching that with interest.

There was also a bit of drama in the middle as England took a review. However, on replays, it was clear that when Kayes attempted the reverse sweep, there was no bat involved. As a result, the original decision stayed.

Just when it felt as if Kayes and Tamim would stitch a century stand and put Bangladesh in a position of relative strength, Stokes struck for the visitors by removing the former. It was a soft dismissal as the left-handed batsman just chipped a a delivery drifting on the pads straight into the hands of Liam Dawson stationed at square leg.

The new batsman is Sabbir Rahman. Now, England's fielders might start to chirp a bit.

Nice achievement for Tamim as he became the first Bangladeshi to crunch 5,000 ODI runs. The dashing left-hander reached the landmark in style by pulling a short ball from Woakes into the boundary boards. The Warwickshire allrounder lost his focus and bowled one down the leg-side. On expected lines, Tamim took a heavy toll of it by glancing it to the fine leg fence.

Adil Rashid has that happy knack of picking up crucial wickets. In the second game, too, he showed his worth by prising out Tamim. The legspinner tried the googly, but he dragged it down. However, Tamim couldn't keep the cut shot down and James Vince at extra cover snaffled a sharp catch with both hands.

Rashid is on a roll as the Yorkshire spinner plucked his third scalp by dislodging the dangerous Rahman. It was superbly bowled, too. He got the ball to dip on the batsman and then it turned considerably off the pitch to elicit the outside edge. Jost Buttler snaffled a fine catch. England needed that wicket as they looked deflated in the field.

England seem to be clawing their way back into the game as Rashid continued to make an impact by winkling out Mahmudullah. The elegant right-handed batsman pulled Rashid for a six over mid-wicket, but in an attempt to up the ante he perished by slapping the next delivery to Bairstow at cover. The veteran batsman would be kicking himself as he found the fielder at cover to perfection and it was a dragged down delivery.

Shakib walks back to the pavilion as he has been stumped by Jos Buttler. It was a slightly freakish dismissal as Moeen Ali beat the left-hander with the one that turned away from him. As Shakib also lunged forward, his back-heel was dragged out of the crease.

Buttler couldn't collect it cleanly, but it deflected off his gloves and onto the stumps. Nice piece of bowling though from Moeen as he dragged the batsman out of the crease.

Another ordinary delivery has helped Rashid to bag his fourth wicket. It was a full toss and begging to be dispatched, but Nasir Hossain crunched it straight to the man positioned at mid-wicket. James Vince gleefully accepted the chance. Rashid perhaps could buy a lottery today.

Mushfiqur Rahim bailed Bangladesh out of a slightly tricky situation with a well-paced fifty to ensure they would end up with more than just a competitive total. The wicket-keeper-batsman allied some powerful hits with cheeky shots to up the ante. He also got a reprieve as Ben Stokes dropped a tough chance at long-off.

At the other end, Mosaddek Hossain Saikat used the depth of the crease to crunch crucial blows square on the off-side. The track is aiding the spinners and a target of 278 could very well turn out to be an uphill task for the visitors.

Vince and Billings gave a good account of themselves in the early overs. Vince, in particular, checked in some fine drives. The ball is skidding onto the bat and that might help out England.

There was also a bit of drama in the middle as Billings bumped into Mortaza as he looked to steal the second run. The Bangladesh captain didn't back away either. Vince, at the other end, would have been dismissed, if there was a better throw from Shafiul. This is turning into a feisty contest.

Nasir Hossain eventually picked up the first scalp for Bangladesh. Vince aimed to nudge the offspinner into the on-side and missed it. The loud appeal for LBW was answered in the affirmative. It was clear that the batsman was hit in front of the stumps.

Billings, however, continued to play with bravado. He even swept Mortaza for a six over backward square leg.

Sam Billings is certainly a batsman to watch out for. The right-hander from Kent blends orthodox shots with innovation in equal measure. In this innings, too, he cracked some powerful strokes, sprinkled with reverse sweeps to net in his maiden ODI fifty. He seems to have the required skills and temperament to make it big at the highest level.

After composing an entertaining fifty, Billings was dislodged by Mosaddek Hossain. It felt as if the aggressive batsman was getting frustrated. Eventually, he tried one shot too many and top-edged a sweep off Mosaddek Hossain to deep backward square leg. Bangladesh needed that wicket.

Ben Duckett continued to impress. The Northamptonshire youngster crunched his second half-century of his fledgling career. It has been another sure-footed innings from the left-hander. He rotated the strike with singles and twos and when needed thumped the big shot.

Just in the nick of though, Shafiul castled Bairstow, with the right-handed batsman paying the price for attempting an ugly hoick.

Duckett, in his short career, has shown a penchant to essay cheeky scoops. However, this around, the shot turned out to be his undoing. The credit has to go to Mushfiqur, the wicket-keeper, for anticipating wonderfully well. As soon as Duckett shuffled across the stumps, Rahim moved to his right and then gobbled up the catch inches above the ground. The match is tantalizingly poised and it could turn out to be another of those humdingers.

The duo of Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler calmed down the nerves in the England camp by combining eye-catching shots and pinching quick singles. However, Mortaza castled Buttler with a slower one to keep Bangladesh in the hunt. Buttler, arguably England's best batsman, aimed to slog a slower one from the Bangladesh captain but could only chop it onto the stumps.

The topsy-turvy third ODI has thrown up quite a few surprises. Moeen Ali, the England allrounder, spooned an easy catch to the mid-on fielder off Mortaza. The Bangladesh captain has been superb for the hosts in this series and might just help them to sneak in home.

In a hard-fought game, usually a mix-up or drop catch could turn the game on its head. Well, Imrul Kayes, who has been a top-notch performer for the home side in this series, dropped an easy chance at first slip, with Woakes being the beneficiary. Now, that might have just snuffed out Bangladesh's chances of winning the series.

Oh! This young England team plays with spunk and spirit. In the 3rd ODI, the visitors yet again showed that they are now a force to reckon with in the limited-overs format as they overcame an energetic Bangladesh team to win the hard-fought series 2-1.

Vince, Duckett and Billings laid the platform with enterprising knocks. However, Duckett's wicket triggered a mini collapse, only for Chris Woakes and Ben Stokes to steer them home.

Stokes played with calmness and when needed, crunched a few lusty blows in the slog overs, while Woakes kept the ball mostly along the ground. It was a partnership that broke Bangladesh's fans hopes.

Bangladesh still would be proud of the way they fought throughout the match. In fact, they have performed creditably at home in the last few years, having won six ODI series in a row.
