England win again

All-rounders Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone perfectly executed the roles of off-spinners to lead England over Bangladesh by eight wickets for their second straight win at the T20 World Cup. Ali (2-18) picked up the wickets of the openers with the new ball and Livingstone (2-15) got the two set batsmen out in the middle overs to restrict Bangladesh to 124-9 in the first ever T20 between the two countries. Jason Roy (61) celebrated his 50th T20 appearance for England with an impressive half century as the topranked team eased to 126-2 in 14.1 overs.

Fast bowler Ruben Trumpelmann rattled Scotland with three wickets off his first four balls as Namibia won by four wickets. Namibia looked by far the better of the two ICC associate member nations that qualified for the main draw with Scotland restricted to 109-8. Namibia stuttered in the middle overs against spinners before JJ Smit (32 not out) carried them to 115-6 in 19.1 overs.
