CHITTAGONG, Bangladesh - - Pitch report by Sir Ian Botham: There is a little bit of grass on the wicket, it looks hard, and the seamers will enjoy a bit more bounce on this wicket. Looks at a much better cricket pitch than the ones we have seen. This may be a high scoring game.
Bangladesh has won the toss and invited England to bat first; which looks to be an interesting decision based on the pitch report and expert analysis. Eoin Morgan, Paul Collingwood and Ajmal Shahzad back in the squad for England replacing Kevin Pietersen, Michael Yardy and Stuart Broad respectively.
Match will be officiated by Daryl Harper and Rod Tucker, Aleem Dar (third), Enamul Hoque-Moni (fourth), Jeff Crowe (referee).
So the finalized playing eleven are as follows for both of the teams:
Teams:
Bangladesh (Playing XI): Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Junaid Siddique, Raqibul Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Mahmudullah, Shakib Al Hasan(c), Naeem Islam, Abdur Razzak, Rubel Hossain, Shafiul Islam
England (Playing XI): Andrew Strauss(c), Matt Prior(w), Jonathan Trott, Ian Bell, Eoin Morgan, Paul Collingwood, Ravi Bopara, Tim Bresnan, Graeme Swann, James Anderson, Ajmal Shahzad
