Good decision. Came off the shoulder. Of Malan, not the bat.

Malan is looking for any opportunity to score here. He's definitely had a pull at that and there was a noise.

Oooffft. Quick from Mustafizur, hurrying the Malan pull shot. High through to the keeper. The Tigers think he's hit it. Umpire Ahsan Raza doesn't. Bangladesh are willing to argue the point...

Taskin Ahmed is struggling with his rhythm, every time his feet lands you can see grass cuttings fly up behind him and he's going to feel that.

Bairstow is hitting the ball hard. Shakib Al Hasan, on the edge of the 30-yard circle, has his palms stung. When Taskin is too short, JB pulls for four.

It really is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.

There was some snow overnight on the highest peaks in the background.

This ground really is magnificent. One of the most picturesque in the world. If the backdrop of the snow-capped Himalayan mountains wasn't enough, then the stadium itself is a glorious assault on the eyes. Each building and stand painted a different block colour. Reds and yellows and greens. Hard to think of many more beautiful places to play cricket. Except Shelford Road, the home of Sandyford CC, of course.

I like Taskin. Right-armed. Powerfully built. Gets a bit of movement. Another strong off-side shot by Bairstow is well stopped in the covers. A lot of the Bangladesh team are wearing luminous yellow boots with their Plymouth green kit. Snazzy.

It went straight to the boundary for four, but it wasn't an easy journey for the ball.

Jonny B up and running as he wins his 100th cap. Taskin Ahmed's first ball is driven square over the beach, I mean outfield. Four more.

His knees buckled slightly as if he was going to dive but he didn't. That's a sign of things to come I think.

He doesn't dive, that's an interesting little sighter, isn't it?

Drive through the covers by the left-handed Malan, creeps to the off-side fence. You wouldn't say the fielders were hurtling after it with confidence. They looked like two deer learning to walk.

Here's the groundstaff spreading grass cuttings across the outfield to cover the bare patches a little earlier...

I know, it's early, but let's be 'avin you.

Text, tweet or send us a WhatsApp.I saw a full bottle of milk discarded in the middle of the road when I drove in this morning. Unopened. One of the strangest things I've ever seen lying on the tarmac.

Jonny Bairstow and Dawid Malan are in the middle, surrounded by those distinctive colourful stands. Hard to overstate how beautiful this ground is. Left-armer Mustafizur Rahman has the ball.

England need to win this, that is for sure.

I tell you what, England need to have a word with whoever has been doing their laundry. Some of those royal blue shirts are looking a bit snug. Either that or there have been a few too many dosas consumed.

There's no getting away from the fact this outfield is a mess.

I walked across it yesterday and I can best describe it as the bit between the car park and the sand dunes when you go to the beach - where the soil is part grass, part sand and part soil.

The officials are happy with it. Jos Buttler is not.

The groundstaff were spreading grass cuttings to try to cover the bare patches earlier.
