The pitch is expected to remain quite dry and slow, for both pacers as well as spinners. At the Bangladesh Premier League T20 tournament earlier this year, the average first-innings score at the venue was 162. Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan decided to bowl after winning the toss against England in the first T20I in Chattogram, the first match of the first bilateral T20I series between the two teams (this is only the second time Bangladesh and England have faced each other in the format).
Over-by-over report: Join James Wallace for updates from the opening match of the series in Chattogram.
1st over: England 9-0 (Buttler 5, Salt 2) Salt is nearly bowled by an arm ball that slides just past the stumps but runs away for a coupe of leg-byes. Buttler loses his shape as he tries to overhit a couple of deliveries but he gets the last one just right, smoking over mid-on for SIX! They scamper a single off it and Phil Salt smashes the next ball for four. High and swirling off a mis-timed drive and the great all-rounder never looked comfortable under it, the ball plopping off his palms and hitting the turf. He tries to clear the rope at long-on but the bat twists in his hands and he’s well caught just inside the rope. On a second look the ball kept low and scudded into off-stump, a tad unfortunate. 17th over: England 136-4 (Ali 0, Curran 1) Just a single off Hasan Mahmud’s over and the wicket of the silver tuna – Buttler. Moeen unfurls a beautiful drive but it is straight to the fielder. A smear to long leg is incredibly hauled back in Shanto on the boundary but his teammate spills the relay catch! Chris Woakes is the new batter and he digs out a yorker to get off the mark. England took the first ten overs and Bangladesh roared back in the next ten. He’s off the mark with a poke into the off side.

We were in a position to really kick on and launch at the end, but we couldn't manage to get away. We've got a lot of really good all-rounders, gives you lot of options as a captain, it's a nice position to be in the field. We were probably 20 short with our score and we had to chase a little bit in the field. In the air, two fielders (Rashid and Curran) converge from deep backward square leg and fine leg. Bangladesh came out and played with a lot of intent and took the game on. 17.6 Jordan to Shakib, FOUR, length ball marginally outside off, Shakib stays back and flashes his bat hard for a cut. 16.5 Jofra Archer to Afif Hossain, FOUR, 141.6kph, overpitched outside off and Afif Hossain latches onto it. Low bounce and a little bit slow but it played pretty well, it was consistent throughout the game. That's the environment we are trying to create in the dressing room. I just watched the ball and played cricketing shots. When we were bowling, we were under the pump but no one panicked. But the action shifts to Dhaka where the tourists won both their ODIs.
