England seal series win in Chittagong

12 Oct 2016 | Cricket
Ben Stokes and Chris Woakes led England to a fantastic 2-1 ODI Series victory in Chittagong – ending Bangladesh’s six-series winning streak at home.

Chasing 278 to win, Ben Duckett, playing only his third game, and Sam Billings, in his first match of the series, made 63 and 62 respectively.

England had a slight wobble when Jos Buttler and Moeen Ali fell in quick succession but Ben Stokes’ mature 47 not out and an unbeaten 27 from Chris Woakes saw the hosts home.

Woakes delivered the winning blow, swatting Shafiul Islam back over his head for six to spark the celebrations.
