1912: Right, that's it from me, I'm off to lie down somewhere with Enya on loop to calm my pulsating heart. Well done the Tigers, until Monday, enjoy the remainder of your weekend.

From Lethal_Lumb on 606: "Good game but I still can't help feeling really disappointed, I'm gonna just pop to A&E now for a heart transplant."

From matt-h88 on 606: "Well, it was going to happen at some point. They've beaten every other Test-playing nation, so we had no right to feel invincible against (though we have rightly been strong favourites). Disappointing result obviously. A strong start with the bat, but the middle-order crumbled. "

Bangladesh coach Jamie Siddons on the Ian Bell situation: "As an Aussie I knew there was no chance he would not bat, but the boys didn't though."

Bangladesh's jubilant captain Mashrafe Mortaza: "Shafiul bowled beautifully in the final over, he bowled slower deliveries that did the trick. Our coach Jamie Siddons, he is the boss for us with all the plans, he's definitely happy."

1900: Blimey, where to start? That's one of the best finishes to a cricket match I have seen in a long time, drama, unpredictability, tension, a hobbling, broken-footed middle-order batsman limping to the wicket with the opposition tearing stumps out of the pitch and Bangladesh's first victory in any form of cricket for 247 days. Their last victory was on 5 November, Guy Fawkes night, but no damp squib in Bristol as the three-match series is well and truly alive as it moves to Edgbaston on Monday.

From Paul in Lancs, TMS inbox: "The residents of Dahala Khagrabari could be dancing in the streets tonight, that's for sure."

49.3 overs: England 231 all out Wicket Trott ct Jahurul b Shafiul 94
Just when victory was a big hit away, Trott edges a straight ball behind to wicketkeeper Jahurul, who hasn't dropped anything this afternoon, to secure Bangladesh's first ever victory against England in any form of cricket. Congratulations to the Tigers who win by five runs.

49.2 overs: England 231-9
Two more for Trott as Rubel Hossain once again fumbles at long-on. Trott moves to 94. Boos ring out as Shafiul stops mid-way through his run-up.

49.1 overs: England 229-9
Unbelievable - Ian Bell hobbles out to the middle and to the non-striker's end for the final over with Eoin Morgan as his runner. There's all sorts of "move over here" and "Oi!" shift it" from the Bangladeshis as Shafiul runs in for his first delivery, spanked for two by Trott.

49 overs: England 227-9 Wicket Anderson ct and bowled Mortaza 2
A full Mortaza delivery is pushed into the off side for a couple before the second ball somehow evades the stumps and squirts down to the fine leg for an incredible boundary. That was the most perfect yorker you will ever see. And Trott adds his second successive boundary, this time with a conventional straight drive as he shifts to the leg side and punches the ball straight past the bowler and past the sprawling long-on and long-off boundary. Sensational. And to add to the drama, Rubel Hossain fumbles as England turn for a second, allowing Trott to dive full length and into his crease to make his ground. Oh lordy - Anderson's just drilled a return catch to Mortaza, who goes absolutely bananas, the fielders are tearing the stumps out of the ground in joy, only to realise that Bell is coming out to bat!!!! England need 10 to win off 6.

From Brendan, TMS inbox: "Do you think England's problems are made worse by the fact no-one has a beard?"

48 overs: England 214-8
Anderson dabs a dodgy-looking push into the leg side to give Trott the strike as Shafiul Islam (thank you Graeme in Barca for pointing out my spelling errors all the way through the innings) bounds in for his ninth over. Excellent fielding off his own bowling ensures he registers three successive dot balls, just three runs from a powerplay over - the fifth and final one too. Tense, exciting, nervous, my fingers are taking a right hammering.

From Mark, Birmingham, text 81111: "13 wides in one over? Blimey. You thoroughly aled up too? "
Errr, yes. That was supposed to say innings. Well done everyone.

47 overs: England 211-8
Unbelievable tekkers - Broad scythes the first ball of Mortaza's ninth over to Shakib Al Hasan at backward point for a catch above his head, sending the tourists into raptures. A swift look at the balcony and it's Jimmy Anderson coming down to bat next. We still are none the wiser whether Ian Bell who, if you have joined us late, has suffered a broken foot fielding this morning. A quick single sees Anderson occupy the non-striker's end, although Trott offers the strike back from the very next delivery with a single. Still none the wiser whether Ian Bell is actually padded up. Oooof! A yorker just evades Anderson's off stump, excellent delivery as the Tigers captain finishes off with a dot ball. England need 26 runs from 18 deliveries with possibly one/half wicket remaining.

46 overs: England 209-7
Shakib bounds in for his final over of the day as Trott plays a rash shot across the line to a ball outside off stump. Shakib overpitches as Trott uses his feet, advancing down the track and taking the ball on the full through the gap between long-on and midwicket for his sixth boundary to move to 73. The former Bangladesh skipper sends down the 13th wide of the innings as England earn eight, reducing the asking to 28 runs from 24 deliveries.

From Eirebilly on 606: "England can very much still win this. It's been a while since I have seen Broad strike a ball that well."

45 overs: England 201-7
Rubel continues as Trott takes a single to the edge of the circle, giving the pace bowler the opportunity to rough up his fast-bowling counterpart Stuart Broad. My word - Broad swings his bat like a three-wood and hammers a full-length delivery over long-on for six - fantastic strike, potentially a match-changing boundary which brings up England's double ton. Broad once again nicks the strike at the end of the over with a punchy drive to mid-off. England need 36 from 30 balls. Nails on nibbling stand-by.

44 overs: England 191-7
A spectator, probably supremely aled, decides to venture on to the field of play, fully clothed, only to be brought down by a posse of stewards as Bangladesh's fielders close in around the 30m fielding circle. In comes Shaiful, who gives Stuart Broad plenty of width to free his arms and caress the ball through the covers for four, much to the jubilation of the Brizzle faithful. However, Stu wants more plundering rather than picking off the singles and is held for three dot balls, including a direct hit at the non-striker's end, but Jonathan Trott makes his ground in time. Broad pinches the strike from the delivery with a leg-bye. England need 46 from 37 deliveries.

43 overs: England 186-7
Abdur Razzak rolls in for his final over of the day and is nudged and nurdled, but nothing to get the muted Bristol crowd off their seats. That's 52 from 44 now. And the batting powerplay is taken. Hold on to your seats folks, we're in for a humdinger of a finish.

42 overs: England 181-7
Rachel, think the advice is more along the lines of when to take the batting powerplay rather than which batsman is going to burn your prized willow to cinder. Just three runs from the returning Mashrafe Mortaza's eighth over, 56 needed from 48 deliveries.

From Rachel Tyrrell, Lincoln, TMS inbox: "What on earth could those glover/towel/message carriers be saying to the England batsmen for crying out loud? 'Don't lose any more wickets?' 'Get some runs?' or 'Lose this and we'll set fire to your kit?'"

41 overs: England 178-7
Bangladesh only have two overs of tweak left as Rubel Hossain and his slingers are recalled by captain Mortaza. Broad gleans a couple with a thick outside edge down to third man while a short delivery which bounces over the left-hander's head is called a wide - and rightly too. England need 59 from 54 balls. They're currently 16 down on the D/L method target, not that this game is in danger of being abruptly halted by a monsoon soaking.

40 overs: England 171-7
Trott is joined by Stuart Broad, who has not been in great form with the blade. Risky shot from Trott, who plays a reverse sweep to a straight delivery from Shakib, but gets it flush on the bat and guides the ball fine past third man for four. Brave batting. England need 66 from 60.

From Warrick and Lauren, text 81111: "We've just left the Somerset cricket ground after watching a very close women's match between England and New Zealand. England win by 2 runs in the last over!"

39.1 overs: England 166-7 Wicket Shahzad bowled Shakib 5
Shahzad goes for an almighty swipe over midwicket, but the ball is too full for a back-foot stroke as it thuds into the bottom of his middle stump. Squeaky-bottom time for England and Ian Bell.

39 overs: England 166-6
Shahzad just about makes his ground running through for a quick single as Siddique's shy from midwicket is wide at the bowler's end. Razzaq concedes five, although the last run was very dicey, a thick underside edge off the bottom of Shahzad's bat.

38 overs: England 161-6
Shakib continues with more wily darts from around the wicket, conceding four from his eighth over. Remember, England still have their batting powerplay up their sleeve. Must be worth taking soon, surely?

37 overs: England 157-6
The frugal Shaiful bowled 22 successive dot balls earlier, but a slower ball is seen and dispatched for four through the covers from Trott for his third one-day international half century for England coming off 91 deliveries. Watchful from Vince Vaughan-a-like Trott as wickets have tumbled around him. Still plenty to do though to secure victory and the series though.

36 overs: England 150-6
Trott moves to 46 with a single, but Shahzad cannot add to England's total as Shakib keeps things tighter than the lid of a bottle of gherkins.

35 overs: England 149-6
The new man is Ajmal Shahzad who, if you have never seen him bat, takes his guard a good foot outside leg stump before shuffling across. He earns a single from his first delivery as runs required is almost level with balls remaining - 88 needed from 90. Tense.

34.1 overs: England 146-6 Wicket Wright ct Siddique b Shaiful 15
Wright attempts an extravagant drive outside off stump, but gleans a huge outside edge to Juanid Siddique at second/third slip, who juggles the ball before pouching with one hand, sparking shrieks of joy from his team-mates. Oh dear, England are closing in on their first ever defeat to Bangladesh in any form of cricket.

34 overs: England 146-5
Ian's dad, sort it out. How many times do you need to see Superman II? Not a particularly encouraging over for England but still, three runs scored from Shakib's sixth over and it's time for a change of ball.

From Ian, 29, Skipton, text 81111: "Please will you tell my dad to turn on the cricket."

33 overs: England 143-5
On comes Shaiful, or "Shuffle" as Henry Blofeld calls the bustling paceman on TMS, who sends down a maiden over to Jonathan Trott. Shaiful, not Henry Blofeld. The pressure is tangible. Time for drinks.

32 overs: England 143-5
Filth. Abject filth from Mohammad Ashraful, who feeds Luke Wright a full toss to smash high and over the deep midwicket boundary. Quite why Mortaza would turn to a player just hours off a plane over the wily spin of Mahmudullah I really don't know. Good over for England, picking up nine very welcome runs.

From James and Felix (genuinely a true story with added puns), text 81111: "It's been a very Straussful day. My pal and I got Morgan we bargained for as we've been stuck on a train that has hit a tree in the middle of nowhere. Haven't moved a Yardy in over three hours. I've just found out that when we get going it won't be at a canter, more of a Trott."

31 overs: England 134-5
Crowd-favourite Rubel gives Wright width, but the all-rounder misses out on a cast-iron "spank me" ball, while Trott capitalises on a another shoddy piece of outfielding, this time from Abdur Razzak.

From Paul Johnston, TMS inbox: "When you say 'apropos to the bowler' in connection with Yardy's dismissal, any idea what you mean? Apropos means: opportunely or relatedly as in: apropos your inability to use foreign phrases correctly, coup de grace does not mean a gracious cup!" Guilty.

30 overs: England 129-5
The Shak continues and sees Shaiful Islam, probably Bangladesh's best outfielder, fumble a pick-up at long-on, allowing Luke Wright to turn back for a second after running the first with purpose. Better over for England with seven runs scored, although Bangladesh have plenty of purpose and intent in their cricket.

29 overs: England 122-5
"This is as good a chance they will have to beat England right now," says Michael Vaughan on Bangladesh's hopes of victory on TMS. Meanwhile, Ian Bell has this to say: I went up for a catch and felt pain as soon as I landed. I knew straight away I'd done something serious. This is obviously extremely disappointing for me. I had worked very hard to get back into the England squad and had been feeling in excellent touch over the last few matches. But as a professional sportsman I accept injuries will happen and it is now up to me to work closely with the medical staff at the National Performance Centre and Warwickshire on a rehabilitation programme that will get me back playing as quickly as possible." Rubel Hossain beats Trott with a beauty outside off stump before beating the edge of Wright's bat with one that moves off the pitch.

28 overs: England 119-5
We're slowly reaching the point when runs required and balls remaining are equal, which is not a good sign for the hosts. Shakib pins Wright with four dot balls before a loosener releases the pressure. Six more overs left before the mandatory ball change.

27 overs: England 117-5
News from England is that Ian Bell is unlikely to bat. However, should the situation require him to make an appearance, then the management will assess the situation on its merits. Basically, if it's desperate, he'll go out on crutches. In comes new man Luke Wright, who survives a nervous lbw appeal turned down by umpire Rauf. Replays clearly show a deviation off the bat before hitting the pad as Wright gets off the mark.

25.4 overs: England 115-5 Wicket Yardy bowled Shakib 10
Yardy completely misses a shortish delivery and is castled going through his shot too early. However, apropos to the bowler, who varied his pace to deceive the Sussex left-hander.

25 overs: England 113-4
Bad ball from Razzak gratefully accepted by Trott, who rocks on to his back foot and dispatches the ball through midwicket for four, the first boundary off the bat for a lengthy 12 overs.

24 overs: England 107-4
The returning Shakib, who wears 75 on the back of his shirt, is thumped for three by Yardy but Trott misses out on a juicy full-toss, driving the ball straight at a fielder as England's run-rate hits five-an-over for the first time.

23 overs: England 103-4
The word soporific springs to mind as Yardy and Trott glean a single from Razzak. An email completely in Chinese characters has entered my inbox. I might attempt to translate that to alleviate my boredom.

22 overs: England 102-4
The front pad of Jonathan Trott brings up England's ton as a deflection races down fine for four off Shaiful Islam, who bowls a maiden as Trott defends stoutly. Bangladesh's last victory in any form of cricket was November last year.

21 overs: England 98-4
Lots of close-ups of Ian Bell, drinking a bottle of mineral water looking not particularly perturbed sat on the England balcony. Both batsmen pick off singles off Razzak like ripe pears taking them closer to the 100-run mark.

20 overs: England 93-4
Shaiful is bowling outside off stump, but Yardy is opting against a stroke, calmly watching the ball on its way through to the keeper. He eventually lays willow on leather, but doesn't earn any rewards for his exploits. Maiden over.

19 overs: England 93-4
New man Michael Yardy eases on to his front foot and creams a couple through the covers before Razzak beats the outside of Trott's outside edge with a belter which fizzes a good six inches, although what Trott was doing playing back to a full-length delivery I have no idea. England in a spot of bother - and make no mistake with one batsman down.

18.1 overs: England 90-4 Wicket Morgan lbw b Razzak 4
Morgan plays all around a straight ball from Razzak, trapping him dead in front. the only question is height - but umpire Rauf has no hesitation as he raises his finger skywards, sending 11 men in green absolutely ballistic. And Hawk-eye confirms the umpire's decision was spot-on.

18 overs: England 90-3
Collingwood trudges off with a sanguine expression, as if he has accepted his fate following his enormous slice of fortune from earlier. Shaiful resumes and sees Trott fashion two leg-side runs before a single hands Eoin Morgan his first joust of the day, a thick outside edge down to third man for a single. After 18 overs Bangladesh were 91-1.

17 overs: England 86-3 Collingwood lbw b Razzak 10
Abdur Razzak returns and has Paul Collingwood trapped lbw! Uh-oh, that looks dodgy. It's official - it's a clanger from umpire Asad Rauf as there's a huge inside edge on to Collingwood's pad. However, many will say cricket karma has balanced things out following Colly's first-ball reprieve.

16 overs: England 83-2
Paul Collingwood lashes a six high over midwicket for six off a bemused Rubel, the bat vibrating violently in his hand in the super slo-mo replays. Great scenes on TMS as Jack Russell describes a commission to paint a portrait of Norman Wisdom. You can't make this stuff up - it's like Bruce French popping around Barbera Cartland's house to write a cricket-related romp.

15 overs: England 77-2
Another tidy over from Mortaza, conceding just two. A woman is eating ice cream on my screen. This is making me extremely angry as I want to do that.

14 overs: England 75-2
I received an email ascertaining my availability for a stag do at the cricket in Bristol on Friday (as in yesterday), but I quickly reminded the said individual that I would be entertaining/boring the masses in west London. I now have visions of 12 extremely pink men marinated in all sorts of amber-coloured beverages taking eight minutes attempting to peel off the cellophane of their eighth scotch egg while chanting something that vaguely resembles "Rubel". Meanwhile four wides go squirting down the leg side from the man himself. Interestingly, Michael Vaughan on TMS is suggesting the line which indicates contact on Snicko appeared AFTER the ball past the edge.

From Anon, text 81111: "Collingwood should have walked - I thought if was better than that."

13 overs: England 70-2
A single each for Colly and Trotty as Mortaza sends down an accurate over.

12 overs: England 68-2
Exceptional timing again from Trott, riding the bounce of a delivery on middle stump and directing the ball with sumptuous timing through midwicket for four before collecting a single off the slingy Hossain.

11 overs: England 63-2
The Bristol crowd, well oiled by a few kegs of pale ale and cider, break into a chant of "ROOOOOOBAAAALLLLLLL!" as the bowler cleans up at fine leg off Mortaza. Bangladesh have also opted to take their second powerplay too.

10 overs: England 61-2
Uh-oh. I feel a controversy stirring. Rubel looks to have snared Paul Collingwood with his first delivery attempting a very ragged cut through to wicketkeeper Jahurul, but umpire Richard Illingworth is unmoved, unlike the celebrations of the Bangladeshis, who look like they've just discovered 20kgs of gold at the bottom of Jamie Siddons's kit bag. Paul Collingwood looks sheepish although Hot-Spot doesn't show any friction heat anywhere on Colly's blade of willow. Ah. Snicko tells a completely different story with a large deviation as the ball passes over the edge of the bat. Collingwood is very lucky. And to boot, this is Richard Illingworth's first international one-dayer in England.

9.2 overs: England 58-2 Kieswetter ct Jahurul b R Hossain 20
Uppish from Kieswetter through point for four, but he's gone the next ball attempting to play something very similar only this time nicking an edge for Jahurul's second catch. Wobbly. Remember, England do not have Ian Bell because he has fractured his foot. Or will he bat on crutches?

From Philip, text 81111: "On the subject of the honours board at Lord's, they have put a special one in the home dressing room for neutral Tests, there was a letter sent out to members on the subject."

9 overs: England 54-1
There was three figures just waiting for Strauss today, but the lure of a vacant third man region proved too much temptation to ignore. New man Jonathan Trott joins fellow South Africa-born team-mate Craig Kieswetter as Shakib Al Hasan is brought on for his first spell of the day. A leg-bye takes England's tally to 50. Some interesting chat on TMS about the forthcoming Test at Lord's between Australia and Pakistan. What happens if a Pakistan player scores a hundred? Does it go on the home honours board? Nice bowling from Shakib, who spins the ball sharply outside Trott's off stump, but the batsman places the next delivery through the covers for an elegant boundary with the minimum of fuss.

7.5 overs: England 49-1 Wicket Strauss ct Jahurul b R Hossain 33
A man with a cotton wool hairdo goes bananas as Andrew Strauss takes two steps down the track, creating room for himself on the leg side in the process, to thump second-change Rubel Hossain through the covers for four. What. A. Stroke. Two more runs follow, although not quite as emphatic as the ball squirts past wicketkeeper Jahurul. But he's back in the pavilion with the next delivery as he plays a needless upper cut into Jahurul's gloves. Straussy looks thoroughly peeved.

7 overs: England 43-0
Shelling peas for Strauss, tucking another boundary off his hips as Mortaza looks aghast, as if someone has just polished his favourite donut with Mr Sheen. However, the skipper is once again diving full length to make his ground as he dithers attempting a quick single. He would have been a goner had Mortaza not taken so long with the catch and shy, although it's pretty easy for me to say that sat in my comfy box. And to further compound the tourists' misery, Kieswetter just shuffles down the crease and lofts Mortaza high over long-off for six towards Burnham-on-Sea. Liquid batting. Refresh your web browser and the overs will be sorted.

From Bamf, Blackpool, TMS inbox: "Should we need an 11th man following Ding Dong's dodgy foot my mate is the spit of him so just in case I'm sending him over the Severn Bridge as we speak. Stick a helmet on him and some pads and they'll be none the wiser. Until he bats."

6 overs: England 31-0 (Target: 237)
Spin is off the agenda as Shafiul Islam is summoned, only to see Strauss scythe a wonderfully Strausseque cut through backward point for four. Kieswetter doubles up following a mis-field at midwicket although Strauss has to dive full-length to make his ground, but he's clearly home when the bails are whipped off. "Strauss loves it there," eulogises Vic Marks as the England skipper tucks a boundary off his pads with effortless ease.

From Mark, Denmark, text 81111: "Rule of thumb is double whatever your total is after 30 overs. Bangladesh managed to get half! 86 from last 20 overs. Shocking."

5 overs: England 19-0 (Target: 237)
Good over from Mortaza, giving nothing for Strauss to free his arms with his first four deliveries before the England skipper angles his bat to guide the ball down to third man for a single, the only run of the over. On the plus side, the sun is beating down all over the County Ground.

4th over: England 18-0 (Target: 237)
Apologies, I got caught short bathing in the glorious sunshine so Oliver Brett admirably stepped into the breach. Kieswetter eyes light up as he spots a short Razzak delivery, using his swift footwork to set up a very attractive pull through midwicket for four. Andrew Strauss, probably still fuming from Kieswetter's "old man" jibe from Friday, takes two steps down the track and launches the left-arm spinner back over his head for a six. He hadn't hit a six in 99 one-day matches before his first. Now he's got 10 in his previous seven. Is that right? I could've just made that up.

3rd over: England 6-0 (Target: 237)
Vic Marks on Test Match Special reckons Trott will bat at three given that Bell is out of action and England have only 10 batsmen. Mortaza beats Strauss outside the off stump, now the England captain drives and picks out short extra cover. He defends the third ball and Strauss is beaten again, this time on the walk. Finally, runs for England as Strauss pulls over short mid-wicket for a couple.

2nd over: England 4-0 (Target: 237)
That's worth a go from Bangladesh - it's the slow left-armer Abdur Razzak, but England are not going to try anything too dramatic at this stage.

1st over: England 3-0 (Target: 237)
Three singles off Mortaza for Strauss and Kieswetter, solid start to this chase from England.

1430:
Not exactly one of my most notable passages of one-day cricket, but you would expect England to knock these runs off without too much bother. I'll be back about 1500ish, join me then.

50 overs: Bangladesh 236-7
New man Abdur Razzak opts to duck a bouncer with three balls remaining. Extraordinary. Anyway, Bangladesh eventually manage to add a couple more but once again squander a useful position in the middle order.

49.3 overs: Bangladesh 233-7 Wicket Mortaza run out 22
WHY OH WHY DO THEY WAIT FOR THE FINAL FIVE OVERS? Mahmudullah gets a length ball to absolutely marmalise high over long-off for six. Had that been 10 overs earlier we could have actually have an innings of real note. Anderson opts for the slower-ball bouncers, which he did at Trent Bridge on Thursday, to bamboozle the green-shirted duo. And Mortaza perishes as Mahmudullah races back for a double, only to see his captain stuck at the non-striker's end. Mortaza eventually ambles down the track as Kieswetter whips off the bails.

49 overs: Bangladesh 224-6
Mahmudullah expertly squeezes the ball between backward point and third man for three before an ugly Mortaza swipe is edged high above Craig Kieswetter's head for four, a boundary which evokes strains of MGMT's indie disco favourite "Kids". Two singles and that's the end of the over.

48 overs: Bangladesh 215-6
Michael Yardy has Asad Rauf calling for the third umpire following an excellent direct hit from square leg, but Mortaza just about makes his ground. The next delivery sees Anderson collect the ball at full stretch off his own bowling, only to see his shy at the stumps miss, allowing the batsmen to run through a single. At last Mortaza finally lays a sizeable amount of willow on the ball, shifting to the leg side and smearing Anderson through cover for four.

47 overs: Bangladesh 207-6
More singles, this time a scampered effort with a soft-handed push. Broad responds with an aggressive bouncer which sends Mortaza crashing to his back side attempting to get his head out of the way. He does something similar the following delivery, although the ball is deemed over head height by Richard Illingworth standing at square leg, prompting Asad Rauf to call a no-ball. Mortaza attempts a big leg-side mooey, but finds Collingwood stationed in the deep at midwicket. This is tedious, five runs from that over.

46 overs: Bangladesh 202-6
At last the powerplay is taken, but probably about 10 overs too late. But despite the spread field Mahmudullah cannot pierce the infield for the big runs, bringing up the double ton with a squirt to cover. Good over from Shahzad, plenty of balls hovering around the yorker length, finishing with 3-41 from 10. Impressive spell.

45 overs: Bangladesh 198-6
A top rant from Banf about Bangladesh's inability to take the batting powerplay with one set batsman at the crease - only to lose his wicket two balls later. England are appealing for Mahmudullah to be given out handled the ball after he appears to deflect the ball his right arm running for a single off Broad, but umpire Rauf dismisses England's claims. Replays suggest Mahmudullah was protecting himself to stop the ball from hitting him, which you are entitled to do under the laws of the game. Anyone remember Steve Harmison and Inzamam-ul-Haq in Pakistan from a few years ago?

44 overs: Bangladesh 196-6
This time it's a blast of Thin Lizzy's the "boys are back in town" as a slower and well-disguised slower ball from Shahzad is chipped high into the air from Kayes, attempting to hit to leg but is deceived by the change in pace, looping a simple catch for Colly running around at point. That's the Yorkshireman's third wicket. In comes skipper Mashrafe Mortaza, who is fortunate not to be back in the pavilion as he is completely bamboozled by a fast delivery just outside the line of off stump. Shahzad follows that up with an aggressive bouncer which Mortaza evades before another swifty outside off stump. Top over.

43 overs: Bangladesh 194-5
Anderson rattles down another six deliveries which yield four runs for the tourists. There's got to be a huge mooey coming up soon, surely?

42 overs: Bangladesh 190-5
Kayes saunters down the track in an attempt to plunder Yardy deep into the crowd, but moves instead to 72 as the ball finds long-on. Yardy fires the last ball down at 65mph, which is probably as quick as most Saturday afternoon bowling duos across the country, 0-39 from his 10. Still no sign of the batting powerplay.

41 overs: Bangladesh 186-5
Another tight over from Anderson as Kayes attempts to free his arms, but can only find fielders in the deep. Mahmudullah opts for a circumspect approach.

40 overs: Bangladesh 183-5
Risky from Mahmudullah, chopping a Yardy delivery right off his middle stump, but gets plenty of the bat on the ball, bisecting point and third man for three. Kieswetter thinks he has Imrul Kayes stumped - only for umpire Rauf to turn his head in disgust at the thought of actually having the temerity to appeal. Replays suggest Kayes back foot never once left the crease. Still Bangladesh are nurdling, but nothing of great substance. Bangladesh need Kayes to give it some welly.

39 overs: Bangladesh 176-5
The earlier profligate James Anderson returns and adds a modicum of respect back to his figures with a steady over, conceding just two runs as Mahmudullah earns his first run of the day.

From Joolz, Brighton, text 81111: "Am I the only one worried about some chap driving a train around while reading the cricket? No wonder the trains are a mess."

38 overs: Bangladesh 174-5
Absolute shocker from Ashraful, not content with narrowly evading cover with a mis-hit aerial drive off Yardy, he opts to take a completely inappropriate second just as Ajmal Shahzad was turning to send in his throw to wicketkeeper Craig Kieswetter, who whips off the bails with the batsman yards outside of his crease. Pointless and utterly self-destructive. In comes new man Mahmudullah, who almost perishes with another run out, but just about makes his ground deciding against taking a run. Good over for the hosts.

37 overs: Bangladesh 172-4
Excitement as Ashraful flails Stuart Broad through cover for four, the first boundary for seven overs. The excitement continues as we are treated to a brief burst of Glenn Frey's "The heat is on", possibly the best piece of sax in the 1980s - and that's up against some serious competition from Candy Dulfer. Another catch! Noo! Luke Wright running around from mid-on cannot reach the ball in time as it lands on the ground as Ashraful loops high in the air attempting to fend off a vicious bouncer from Broad. Four men in surgeon's scrubs discuss something, probably not a triple heart by-pass, with varied states of beer consumption.

From Paul in Lancs, TMS inbox: "I was just wondering whether the people of Dahala Khagrabari would support India or Bangaldesh in a South Asian version of the Tebbit cricket test. Dahala Khagrabari is the world's only known counter-counter enclave, being set inside a Bangladeshi exclave, Upanchowki Bhajni, which itself lies within the largest Indian exclave in Bangladesh, Balapara Khagrabari. Are there any TMS live text readers from that area able to clarify who the people of Dahala Khagrabari might root for?"

36 overs: Bangladesh 165-4
The Yard bounds in and is unfortunate not to see Kayes run out following a tight single, probably the first mistake by Craig Kieswetter all day as he fails to cling on to Jonathan Trott's return from point. Still, just three runs from the "spinner's" seventh over.

35 overs: Bangladesh 162-4
Stuart Broad returns and sees Ashraful squirt a thick outside edge just short of Paul Collingwood at backward point with a menacing delivery. Ashraful looks longingly at umpire Richard Illingworth (one of a handful of cricketers to get a wicket with his very first delivery in Test cricket) as a bouncer sails over his head, but the former Worcestershire left-arm spinner isn't having any of it. More singles, but still no pyrotechnics.

34 overs: Bangladesh 158-4
It's in! No! It's out! Luke Wright cannot hold on to an exocet from Kayes, who nails a drive right out of the middle of the bat off Ajmal. Excellent effort from the Sussexman, stopping a certain boundary as Kayes nicks the strike with a dab down to third man.

33 overs: Bangladesh 155-4
Imrul Kayes looks set to break the boundary famine with a scythe to deep point, only to see Jonathan Trott to come running at full throttle and prevent the boundary with a full-stretched dive beside the rope, saving two runs in the process. The Brizzle crowd, probably up to pint number three of some sort of amber-coloured liquid, appreciate the Warwickshire batsman's efforts.

From Mark, sitting in a small mobile greenhouse, text 81111: "What about the Brazil flag? Blue circle surrounded by a yellow diamond. bored, very hot, train driver, Kent. Can any one think of a worse job in this weather?"
Errrr, probably not. Any leaves on the track? By the way, the circle/flag thing was more one huge circle, rather than the subtle efforts you see in the Indian or Brazilian flags. Hardly what I could call box-office chat, granted.

From nigeweir on 606: "I think that we are playing without KP, Swann, Bresnan and are still a good side. Bright future?"

32 overs: Bangladesh 152-4
Excellent wheels from Shahzad, provoking Ashraful to play and miss a real snarling delivery outside off stump before fending off another nasty short delivery off his glove to third man for a single, but well played by Ashraful, taking his bottom hand off the bat to force the ball down rather than high into the air. Nasty over, full of menace and pace.

31 overs: Bangladesh 150-4
Absolute shocker from Shakib, who exposes all three stumps stepping across to play the ball over his shoulder, but completely misjudges the line from Colly as the ball completely rearranges his furniture. Needless and totally irrational shot. In comes the frustratingly brilliant Mohammad Ashraful, who plays Colly with a wheelbarrow-load more respect than his former skipper. He's off the mark with a gentle push and steals the strike. Bell update number four - Ian has fractured his fifth metatarsal.

30 overs: Bangladesh 149-3
New man and former captain Shakib Al Hasan is immediately off the mark with a single but Shahzad is unlucky not to double up with his second wicket in three deliveries as Kayes skies a fast, skiddy bouncer high into the air but the ball falls a good couple of yards short of the onrushing backward point.

29.4 overs: Bangladesh 148-3 Wicket Jahurul ct Kieswetter b Shahzad 40
Strauss opts for a change of tactics, reintroducing the pace of Ajmal Shahzad, who took the early wicket of Tamim Iqbal, but both Jahurul and Kayes are putting England's close fielders under pressure with a series of dangerous/well-judged singles. Tonk! Take that! Jahurul clears his front foot and swipes a full delivery straight past the bowler for four. But he's gone the next ball, edging to Kieswetter for a simple catch. No feet movement there, but a very useful stand nonetheless.

Matthew Coleman, TMS inbox: "Loads of flags with circles in the middle! South Korea, Brazil, Laos, Kyrgyzstan, FYR of Macedonia."

28 overs: Bangladesh 142-2
Deft sweep from Jahurul, who gleans two down to fine leg before a chipped drive to long-on for a single off Colly. The red-capped Kayes adds a simple single, the 76th run from 95 deliveries in this third-wicket stand. Andy Flower's sunglasses hide what surely must be a steely stare.

27 overs: Bangladesh 137-2
More Ian Bell news - Ian Bell has returned to Bristol and is on crutches. Meanwhile, Jahurul opts for a suicide single pushing Yardy to cover, just about making his ground as Kieswetter whips off the bails. Meanwhile, Yardy is unlucky to concede three, only for replays to confirm the ball brushed the arm guard on its way down to fine leg. All is looking promising for the tourists.

26 overs: Bangladesh 130-2
A little tickle around the corner for a single off Collingwood and that's Imrul Kayes's fifth one-day 50 - well batted that man. Apart from Japan and Bangladesh, are there any other countries with a huge circle in the middle of its flag?

26 overs: Bangladesh 127-2
Smart take from Kieswetter, who neatly gathers a leg-side wide from Yardy with the minimal of fuss. Jahurul collects two doubles as England's fielding is starting to look a little slipshod.

25 overs: Bangladesh 120-2
Time for a change and Paul Collingwood is summoned and his cutters are actually turning off the track. Nothing big and clever from the third-wicket duo, but enough intelligent singles to keep the scorecard ticking over. Hardly what Andrew Strauss was expecting when he won the toss this morning.

From Claire, stuck at work in Chester, TMS inbox: "Paul, if my boss offered to stir fry anything in my think wok, I'd have him done for sexual harassment! And let's stop picking on Luke Wright, he's beautiful to look at!"

24 overs: Bangladesh 116-2
Imrul Kayes takes a rough swipe inside his trousers to ensure all is well down there following a couple of leg-byes off Yardy, who really is a difficult man to swipe and launch into the stands. Another Bell update - it's an x-ray on his left foot. Apologies for the wrong score in the entry below, refresh your page and it should be there.

23 overs: Bangladesh 113-2
Wright simply does not look a wicket-taking threat here as he is milked for singles by these two Bangladeshi batsmen, who should be growing in confidence now.

22 overs: Bangladesh 108-2
Yardy stems the runflow with a frugal over, just two runs.

21 overs: Bangladesh 106-2
Jahurul brings up the 100 with a single off Luke Wright, extending the partnership to 37 from 48 deliveries. Slightly fortuitous for Kayes as a thick outside edge flies over the vacant slip region and down past third man for four, doubling the booty from that over. Wright snorts with derision.

20 overs: Bangladesh 98-2
More misfields allow the Bangladeshi duo to pick up a bonus run as Michael Yardy races through his over, conceding three. A steady platform is being constructed, but will it be a repeat of Trent Bridge again, or can they genuinely push on and post a competitive total. Apologies, got a little carried away with my overs - refresh and all will be well again.

Paul, TMS inbox: "How about this one from an old boss of mine: 'Let me stir fry this idea in your think wok'. Lovely.

19 overs: Bangladesh 95-2
Urgh. Kayes saunters down the track and attempts a huge mooey, but doesn't get anywhere near the bat, much to Luke Wright's incredulity. A Stuart Broad direct hit allows the Bangladeshi duo to pick up an overthrow as Kayes opens the blade and guides the ball down to third man for a single. Jahurul somehow manages to survive as he completely mis-times an expansive aerial drive over mid-off, only for the ball to drop limply two yards in front of...yep, you've guessed it, Ajmal Shahzad. To be fair to the Yorkshireman, he had absolutely no chance of clinging on to that.

18 overs: Bangladesh 91-2
Chris in Copenhagen is wondering if there is any news on Ian Bell. The answer is no, although we saw a shot of an ambulance which presumably contained "the Shermanator" and was heading off to hospital for x-rays. Bell sustained the injury diving to his left at square leg trying to catch Junaid Siddique at square leg in the 10th over, falling awkwardly. Meanwhile, Michael Yardy steps up to the oche sends down six darts, three of which are milked for singles. Good period this for the tourists.

From Dan, Canterbury, TMS inbox: "Re: Orson, Rutland's comment - my favourite ever Drop the Dead Donkey line - something like 'George is so unlucky, he's the only man I know ever to have been savaged by a pine marten in Marks & Spencers'. Brilliant."

17 overs: Bangladesh 88-2
Stuart Broad opts for "chin music" length and Kayes isn't comfortable fending the ball rearing towards his throat, getting just about enough bat to earn a single. The Notts seamer opts to go around the wicket to Jahurul but maintains his short-ball policy, only for the right-hander to tonk a hook over fine leg for the first maximum of the day before playing a similar shot, although nowhere near the middle of the bat, through midwicket for three. A good over for the tourists is completed when soft hands from Kayes allows the third-wicket duo to race through for a well-taken single.

From Michael (again), Frome, Somerset, TMS inbox: "Brainstorming :'Let's pop it in the microwave and see what goes ping'."

16 overs: Bangladesh 77-2
Craig, below, hang your head in shame. Big shout out to Asad Rauf's sunglasses, you would expect to see them on Andy Warhol in his pomp rather than Pakistan's premier cricket umpire. Luke Wright continues with his bustly, shuffly run-up and concedes three, including an aerial pull from Islam for two. Time for a beverage.

From Craig, London, TMS inbox: "Those guys in fancy dress must be boiling. Saw a guy in a cows costume in London half-an-hour ago handing out leaflets, but rather than be detesting the heat he was milking it."

15 overs: Bangladesh 74-2
Matt wants to know whether the ball is swinging. Save for a little bit of pitch deviation, there is absolutely no sign of any hoop so far. Broad continues and exceeds the 90mph mark, although Kayes turns the ball down to third man for a single as Jahurul squirts a single down to square leg to earn his first run of the morning. Meanwhile, 12th man Tim Bresnan is summoned to retrieve a box from the infield. He holds the piece of moulded plastic as if it was some sort of nuclear refuse. Meanwhile, Broad oversteps, allowing Kayes to swing his arms for a free-hit, only to land just in front of deep square leg for a single.

From Tattz, Oldbury, TMS inbox: "I used to be in a band, and once whilst experimenting with something a little jazzy, the keyboard player said 'let's put that out the back door and see if the cat likes it'. Genius."

14 overs: Bangladesh 67-2
New man Jahurul Islam joins the party - and another left-hander to boot. Junaid was clearly aggrieved by his dismissal but Snicko suggests there was the faintest of touches with his gloves before thudding into Kieswetter's gauntlets. The man sitting next to my left suggests his gloves are so padded he didn't actually feel the impact of the ball, which is a very salient point. Meanwhile, I've just heard Ian Bell has gone to hospital following an awkward fall in the field, which I missed. Sorry. More news to follow when we have it. Just two runs from Luke Wright's second over, including a wide.

13 overs: Bangladesh 65-2 Wicket Siddique ct Kieswetter b Broad 21
Eh? Collingwood misfield? Surely an oxymoron, but no, the Wearsider actually misses a relatively straightforward (for him) ball at backward point off Stuart Broad. Excellent riposte from Broad, who sees Siddique sway unconvincingly to a short delivery - and he's gone off the final delivery of the over as the left-hander follows a wide ball down the leg side and looks to have made the finest of brushes with his gloves on the way through to Craig Kieswetter. Up goes umpire Asad Rauf's finger, much to the incredulity of the batsman.

From Orson, Rutland, TMS inbox: "Just watching some old episodes of Drop the Dead Donkey. The quotes from Gus are classics. 'Just a thought I wanted to pop into your fishbowl and see if it blows bubbles.'

From nigeweir on 606: "It's refreshing seeing Bangladesh play cricket like this. They are seriously good to watch and will give us a good game here if we are not careful. And they can still look forward to the bowling of Luke Wright "

12 overs: Bangladesh 63-1
Possibly because of his two fielding errors, Ajmal Shahzad is replaced by the bustling Luke Wright, who is milked for easy runs by left-handers Junaid Siddique and Imrul Kayes. The former adds his fourth boundary of the morning with yet another effortless push through the offside, as if playing a subtle drop-shot at the net at Wimbers. Not much wobble or hoop as hoped by Andrew Strauss at the toss, batting doesn't look too taxing right now.

11 overs: Bangladesh 55-1
Broad continues and sees Imrul Kayes edge just short of Andrew Strauss at a wide second slip. Uh-oh - more on-field woe for Shahzad as Kayes goes for the aerial flail down to third man which looks a regulation catch for third man on the boundary. Except the Yorkshire paceman has raced in a good 10 yards off the boundary, only to see the ball sail over his head for four. Word of advice fella, don't look your captain in the eye for a good couple of overs.

From Tom, text 81111: "I was once told in a performance review that I was 'a digital player in an analogue world'."

10 overs: Bangladesh 50-1
Shahzad continues and sees Junaid Siddique play a quite sensational front-foot drive through extra cover for four - driven on the up. Wonderful shot, followed up by another as Shahzad strays on to leg stump, allowing the left-hander to flick his wrists and send the ball high over square leg for his second successive boundary. Number three follows the very next delivery - and what a classy shot that is, checking his drive half-way through because the ball is not full enough to drive, timing the ball so well as it rolls down to the mid-off boundary which brings up the Bangladeshi 50. Expensive/expansive over.

9 overs: Bangladesh 36-1
Just got a text starting with the words "Hi Vernon, love the show". Wonder if Vernon Kay has a message about Ajaml Shahzad's ability to move the ball away from the bat. That would make riveting Radio 1 listening. Change of bowling for England as Stuart Broad joins the party, only for Imrul to flay an aerial cut down to third man for a single. Some great costumes on show in Bristol - my favourite so far is one of the three Amigos. Hope it's Chevy Chase, he was my favourite.

8 overs: Bangladesh 34-1
The sheepish Shahzad, keen to make amends for his previous over aberration, sends down six deliveries on and around the 88-90mph bracket which Siddique plays with a straight bat, although hardly what one would describe with a Boycott-like vigour.

From Daniel Roy Connelly, Shanghai, TMS inbox: "'Thinking out of the box?' Why not just make the box bigger?"

7 overs: Bangladesh 31-1
Wallop! Kayes leans on his front foot and smites Anderson through cover with a sumptuous drive for four. Fresh from his wicket, Shahzad makes an absolute pig's trough of a simple catch at short third man/deep gully position as Siddique wafts unconvincingly outside off stump, but the Yorkshireman completely misses the flight of the ball. He doesn't even get a hand on it, as it rolls to the deep backward point boundary for four. Oh yeah, give your page a quick refresh to pick up/lose a few bits and pieces.

6 overs: Bangladesh 21-1
New man Junaid Siddique, another left-hander, takes his place at the crease as we see replays of a very intelligent piece of bowling from Shahzad, highlighting the deviation off the pitch which snared the edge of Tamim's bat. Also, apropos for Kieswetter as he could have left that for Andrew Strauss at first slip, but the ball would never have carried. Junaid is off giving it the military two-step following his first delivery but eventually gets off the mark with a leg-side push.

From Michael, Frome, Somerset, TMS inbox: "Latest buzz expression from across the pond:- 'Let's come at this with an open kimono and see what what happens!'"

5.1 overs: Bangladesh 19-1 Wicket Tamim ct Kieswetter b Shahzad 18
Tamim refuses to move his front foot to a full delivery outside off stump from Shahzad, snicking an edge to wicketkeeper Craig Kieswetter, who dives low to his left to cling on for a confident catch.

5 overs: Bangladesh 19-0
Tamim absolutely marmalises an Anderson delivery outside off stump through point for an authoritative boundary, it wasn't all that short either. The shot-making brilliance of a batting genius. However, batting partner Imrul swings like a lumberjack but fells not a mighty oak but a horrible swish outside off stump.

4 overs: Bangladesh 14-0
Shahzad twice sniffs the outside of Tamim's bat bowling around the wicket. The left-hander engages in a chat with Straussy after pulling out mid-way through Shahzad's run-up for his third delivery, don't think that's an exchange about Paul the psychic octopus either. Good name for an octopus, although I prefer Alan. Tamim swats another leg-side flick down to fine leg where Luke Wright makes one of the most awesome diving saves on the rope you will ever see at a cricket ground in the west country, cutting off two runs for sure.

3 overs: Bangladesh 11-0
Wonderfully timed dab from Tamim, tucking the ball off front pad and through midwicket for four. Absolutely no effort in that shot, but the not-so-shot-shy opener plays a couple of extravagant whooshes for nowt off Anderson, who wears the expression of a man who can't quite remember his online banking code number. hello to Kevin, bored at work in Plymouth, chin up son - only other six hours to go. Go and visit Mark Orlovac's British Grand Prix live text commentary for fun too.

2 overs: Bangladesh 6-0
Excellent wheels from Ajmal Shahzad, who rattles the speedgun at 90mph with his second delivery, although Michael Vaughan, among others , is not too convinced with the legitimacy of the technology. Imrul Kayes gets off the mark with a leg-side push, while Tamim plays a riskier shot the following delivery, but squirts the ball to safety beyond square leg.

From Matt, Sheffield, TMS inbox: "Let's run that idea up the flagpole and see who salutes it."

1 over: Bangladesh 4-0
Tamim nonchalantly flicks a leg-side delivery off his front pad and down past Ajmal Shahzad at fine leg for four, a boundary which suddenly sparks the public address system to blare out Marina and the Diamond's "Hollywood". "I'm obsessed with the mess that's America," hardly the most apt lyrics for a one-dayer as Tamim leaves a sharp delivery from Anderson which Kieswetter does well to cling on to as it rears alarmingly after pitching.

1044: So out England in their savvy navy blue kit, although the cumilonimbus clouds are numerous, so no glorious sunshine which I'm witnessing out of my window here in west London. The brash Tamim Iqbal to take strike and James Anderson to take the new ball.

1040: A comedy moment at the toss as Michael Atherton mentions Craig Kieswetter's not-so-subtle labelling of Andrew Strauss as an " old man ". Straussy reminds his junior opening partner he should keep his mouth shut, but in a nice way. I think. Taxi for Kieeeeeeeeswetter.

1037: My wingman Oliver Brett has worked out that's the eighth time in succession England have fielded first. Extraordinary. Straussy says the green-tinged pitch and the muggy conditions will favour the seamers, with little seam expected for Tredders. Three changes for Bangladesh, two enforced because of injuries. Out goes left-arm spinner Faisal Hossain and in comes namesake and pace bowler Rubel Hossain, while as expected Mohammad Ashraful returns and Jahurul Islam will keep wicket.

1030: So what have I learned in the last two days? Always wear a helmet standing up to the wicket if you're a stumper,never ignore a octopus's World Cup predictions and The National's High Violet gets better with every listen. Anyone else have nuggets of wisdom to share? Any comedy meeting-speak you want to share?

1023: Toss time - Andrew Strauss wins and would you believe it England have once again elected to field first. Two changes for the hosts as Tim Bresnan and James Tredwell make way for Ajmal Shahzad and Jonathan Trott. News on the tourists to come...

1020: Blue-sky thinking? Helicopter view? Thinking out of the box? Another England one-day win? Buzz words. What would team meetings be like without them?
