    Rabeya Khan shovels Alice Capsey's hat-trick ball round the corner for four.

    Rabeya Khan and Sanjida Akter Meghla scamper four runs off Linsey Smith.

    Lauren Bell of England is congratulated by team mate Nat Sciver-BruntGetty Images

    What a take from Lauren Bell. One-handed in the end and right over her head!

    She is always so happy and looks surprised with that one.

    WICKET

    Marufa c Bell b Capsey 0 (Ban 157-9)

    A first-baller for Marufa Akter and two wickets in the over for Alice Capsey.

    The England all-rounder gives it plenty of air and Marufa takes the bait.

    She's unable to clear the towering figure of Lauren Bell who awkwardly takes an awkward catch, but hangs on.

    Capsey takes two quickfire wickets in the over

    It has been a brilliant innings from Sobhana Mostary in the context of the game. It has not been express but a good effort.

    WICKET

    Mostary lbw b Capsey 60

    A punt worth taking!

    It's a good delivery from Alice Capsey which spins back and hits Sobhana Mostary high on the pad.

    One of those were it did not look that out, but the ball-tracking shows three reds and the on-field decision of not out is overturned.

  7. Ffion Wynne
    BBC Sport cricket writer on BBC Radio Sports Extra

    It looks a decent shout but Sobhana Mostary is far back in her crease.

  8. England review

    Alice Capsey strikes Sobhana Mostary on the pad.

    With two reviews remaining Nat Sciver-Brunt takes a punt.

    Linsey Smith has hit a good line and length with just 22% of her deliveries today - the lowest figure for any game of her ODI career to date.

  10. Henry Moeran
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    A real shift in impetus from Rabeya Khan and boy did Bangladesh need it.

  11. Ban 153-7

    A filthy full toss from Linsey Smith is boshed down the ground for four by Rabeya Khan.

    Rabeya picks up another boundary with bottom edge off Smith's final delivery of the over - a quarter chance for Amy Jones, perhaps?

    Rabeya has 22 off 17 deliveries which is out of kilter with the way everyone else has batted for Bangladesh.

  12. How's stat?!

    Rufus Bullough
    CricViz analyst

    Sophie Ecclestone now has 26 World Cup wickets at an average of just 14.26.

    Of the five England players to have more ODI World Cup wickets, only Clare Taylor has a better average (36 wkts @ 13.94)

  13. Ban 145-7

    Sobhana Mostary of BangladeshGetty Images

    England have been rapido through their overs here.

    Rabeya Khan a little more circumspect to the left-arm spinner Sophie Ecclestone.

    She gets the sweep out again, though, to Ecclestone's third ball but has to settle for a couple after Emma Lamb scurries off to prevent the boundary.

    Ecclestone finishes with 3-24 from her allotted 10 overs.

  14. Henry Moeran
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    A lovely couple of shots from Rabeya Khan. Where has that been hiding?

  15. Ban 140-7

    The lesser-spotted sweep shot!

    New Bangladesh batter Rabeya Khan gets off the mark with a clinical sweep through mid-wicket.

    Alice Capsey chuckles to herself.

    However, she's not so amused a couple of balls later when Khan goes down on one knee again and slog sweeps it from outside off for four.

  16. Ban 130-6

    Best shots from Mostary's half-century against England

    Sobhana Mostary has held Bangladesh's innings together today with a stoic knock.

    Sophie Ecclestone of EnglandGetty Images

    England's spinners have barely missed and they have got the rewards for it. Sophie Ecclestone has been so metronomic.

    Bangladesh have just got to bat out their overs now.

  18. wicket

    WICKET

    Nahida c Dean b Ecclestone 1 (Ban 130-7)

    Nahida Akter with an almighty waft to a delivery from Sophie Ecclestone but the only thing she hits is fresh air.

    Fast forward to the last ball of the over and Sophie Ecclestone has her wicket and it's a relatively tame dismissal.

    Nahida takes on a wide-ish one outside off stump and chips it into the hands of Charlie Dean, who is stationed in a close-catching position at short extra cover.

    Nahida is caught by Dean off the bowling of Ecclestone

  19. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    England surely will be thinking that Sophie Ecclestone and Linsey Smith will be taking these last few overs.

    Or stick with Alice Capsey?

  20. Ban 126-6

    Sobhana Mostary sheds the helmet for the cap, and with the change of headwear comes some aggression.

    She skips down the pitch and biffs Alice Capsey back over her head.

    A couple of balls later and Mostary pulls one which drops just short of Tammy Beaumont at square leg.

    Mostary hits Capsey for four
