ICC Champions Trophy 2017: England vs Bangladesh, 5 talking points

4. Tamim Iqbal’s classy ton goes in vain

Tamim Iqbal’s sublime innings of 128 didn't prove to be enough

The Bangladesh opener had a great start to the campaign as he played a brilliant innings, 128 off 142 balls, and provided the perfect platform for the middle order. In his memorable knock, the southpaw hit twelve boundaries and three maximums.

However, Bangladesh lost their way soon after his dismissal. England, to their credit, bowled tight areas and didn’t give any loose balls. As a result, Bangladesh could manage to score 305 which was probably 20 runs short of what would have been a good score on the surface.
