Scorecard

England collapsed to 196 all out as Bangladesh avoided a one-day international series clean sweep with a 50-run win in Chittagong.

Having already taken an unassailable 2-0 series lead, England restricted Bangladesh to 246 all out.

But the visitors lost three wickets in seven balls from 54-0 and were bowled out with 41 balls of their innings still remaining.

Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan took 4-35 after striking 75 with the bat.

Shakib became the first Bangladesh player to reach 300 ODI wickets when he removed Rehan Ahmed thanks to a Mehedi Hasan catch.

England were hoping to become the first side to secure a clean sweep in an ODI series in Bangladesh since Sri Lanka in 2014.

James Vince top-scored with 38 for England with most of the visitors’ top and middle order unable to capitalise on good starts.
