Which commentator will host the toss?
Can The Black Swann scalp 4 or more wickets?
Will Eng win by x runs or x wickets?

think the tigers will win it....

Simon Doull
Highly improbable. On average he only takes 1.8 wickets per match :sleep:.
x runs

Bangladesh are being crushed under the weight of expectation now that they've graduated to not-quite-minnow status and are playing at home. I predict a comprehensive England win.

Hopefully Bangladesh don't miss the bus like they did against the WI.

England should win this.

Expecting another completely disappointing defeat here for BD.

England should win, but both teams have been very unpredictable so far in this tournament, so it could well be a very tight contest.

Gonna say Nasser H fwiw.
Nas knows how to host pre match formalities iirc.

Simon Doull brings a touch of class... but probably not the right sort of class

1) N.Hussain
2) No
3) x wickets

it will be Atherton

Really wish the Bangladeshis win this game. It would be crushing for their supporters if they lose.

I'm hoping the selectors belatedly do the right thing and promote Bell to open. I'm haunted by visions of Prior being re-bumped up now Morgan is back in situ.

Be keen to see Yardy get the arse too but strongly think he'll be retained and Colly will miss out. Be incredibly harsh to ditch Ravi after his 60 v SA.
