At the risk of jinxing it, Hales and Root have got things ticking over nicely here. A half-century apiece, keeping up with the run-rate without taking risks, and all looks pretty comfortable. Just need to be careful not to make the same mistake as Bangladesh and start throwing wickets away when the time comes to accelerate.

Halfway through the innings, England 138-1.

And sure enough, England throw a wicket away. Five off a century, Hales holes out to Sunzamul.

Eoin Morgan in, England 165-2 with twenty-two overs remaining.
