  2. 'We couldn't execute'published at 05:49 21 June

    Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto: "I think the wicket looked very, very good. A bit slow but I think we should have scored at least 170.

    "Playing against this kind of team, we had to take risks. We couldn't execute but we tried something different today."

    On his start as captain: "So far I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm taking responsibility and I always love to do that. It's going all right so far, I hope to do it more."

    On India up next: "It's very important that the top order gets some runs, we've struggled in the last couple of matches.

    "We had a good step today. The bowlers need to continue their form and we can have a good match against India."

  3. 'We've got great leaders'published at 05:47 21 June

    Australia captain Mitchell Marsh: "I thought it was a really solid bowling performance, everyone chipped in.

    Is this your best 11?: "I think it's a very good playing 11. We've always spoken about having 15 guys who can take us deep in this World Cup and we will pick teams on conditions.

    Enjoying the captaincy?: "I'm loving it. It's a great team to lead. We've got a lot of great leaders in our group and a great group of staff."

  4. 'It's pretty awesome to join the hat-trick club'published at 05:41 21 June

    Australia bowler Pat Cummins was named player of the match after taking a hat-trick: "At the end of the over, I saw it come up on the screen and I totally forgot about it.

    "With a set batter in the innings, that was a big one. With wickets throughout the innings we were able to restrict them."

    Have you taken a hat-trick before?: "A few in junior cricket but never for Australia. It's pretty awesome to be able to join the club."

    On the performance: "I think we were fairly polished. Our goal was to win, we did that really well and the run-rate is a big positive as well."

    Play will not resume in Antigua and it means Australia have beaten Bangladesh by 28 runs (via DLS).

    Barring a brief blip after the first return from the rain, Australia completely controlled that match and have started their Super 8s campaign with a comfortable victory.

    Still no news of a potential restart in Antigua, but if there is one, it will be with reduced overs.

    The cut-off time for play is 05:45 BST.

  8. Australia's chasepublished at 05:15 21 June

    Australia flew out of the traps in their chase of 141 and were 65-0 at the start of the seventh over when the rain came and caused a 25-minute delay.

    Upon return, two quick wickets for Rishad Hossain dismissed Travis Head and captain Mitchell Marsh in quick succession, leaving Australia 69-2.

    Joining the already set David Warner, Glenn Maxwell has helped to put the control back in Australia's hands.

    Warner, in one of his final career appearances before retiring from international cricket at the end of this World Cup, passed 50 with his third six of the game.

    Shortly after that, played was stopped once again, with Australia needing 41 off 52 balls to win.

  9. How play has gone so far...published at 05:12 21 June

    If you are just joining us, there is currently a rain delay in Antigua, so here is a recap.

    After winning the toss, Australia put Bangladesh in to bat first.

    Having fallen to 0-1, Bangladesh rebuilt to 58-2 when Litton Das was bowled by Adam Zampa.

    Bangladesh continued to build a steady score and were 122-5, but a hat-trick late in the innings from Pat Cummins halted Bangladesh, who finished the innings on 140-8.

    Like the last rain delay, Australia are well above the DLS par score, should overs start to get reduced.

    On DLS, they should be on 72. Instead, they are 100-2.

    Rain or no rain - Australia are going to win this.

  12. Rain stops playpublished at 11.2 overs

    Aus 100-2 (Target 141)

    The rain has returned in Antigua just as Australia reach three figures.

    The covers are once again coming back on to the field and unlike the other delays, the rain feels a bit heavier this time around.

    David Warner passes 50 with an excellent six off the bowling of Taskin Ahmed.

    He flicks his wrists through it and sends it all of the way over the deep mid-wicket boundary.

    It could be one of his final half-centuries for Australia, if not his last, and he bought it up in real style.

  14. Aus 93-2published at 11 overs

    Target 141

    Having been the one to take two wickets, Rishad Hossain will be frustrated to see that over go for 13 runs.

    Maxwell is an extraordinary player - he always has been. He's on form and has set about Bangladesh here.

  16. Aus 91-2published at 10.4 overs

    Target 141

    It is probably safe to say that after a minor panic, Australia are back to where they were before the day.

    Glenn Maxwell finds six with a flat-batted shot over deep mid-wicket.

  17. Aus 84-2published at 10.2 overs

    Target 141

    A really great shot from David Warner, reverse-sweeping up and over the fielder at point for four.

    That head of steam the two wickets gave Bangladesh has been snuffed out by Glenn Maxwell and David Warner.

  19. Aus 80-2published at 10 overs

    Target 141

    A good over for Australia after a short slump, 10 runs and two boundaries come from it.

    Spin is what got Australia into a spot of bother and for Bangladesh to apply the pressure, that is what they must go back to.

    I wonder if David Warner will get another crack at England? One more match against the old enemy...
