Jason Roy century helps England return to winning ways against Bangladesh

Live updates as England face Bangladesh in Cardiff

Five bowlers to watch at the Cricket World Cup

Jason Roy helped himself to a sparkling century as England got back to winning ways at the World Cup with a 106-run victory over Bangladesh.

An unexpected setback against Pakistan had raised the stakes of this Cardiff clash, but if there was any lingering tension, Roy's commanding knock of 153 in 121 balls blew it away in style.

He was responsible for five of England's 14 sixes, including three in a row immediately before his exit, setting the scene for a daunting total of 386 for six. Re-live the action in the blog below:

Splendid stuff from Roy, who is showing signs that this is going to be a strong innings from the Surrey batsman as he slaps Shaifuddin's delivery straight back over his head and for four.

Score predictor is suggesting England will get 354. I'm going to throw out that they may well get a few more than that.

There's his 50! Roy is motoring here and brings up his half-century with a wonderful drive for six.

Well, there's not a huge amount of faith in a riveting Bangladesh comeback...

There's actually a serious point from KP hidden in that Tweet. England have started so well, maybe even too well, and there absolutely no way that Bangladesh are coming back into this, thus rendering the next six hours a procession to the eventual conclusion.

One-day cricket certainly has its moments, but too often this scenario crops up there the sense of competition is wiped away.

Roy is making things look so easy out there as he whacks one over extra-cover and away for four. Bangladesh can only pray for an unforced error to get him out....

And just as I type that there's a potential run out! It's Bairstow scrambling to get back to the non-strikers' end, but he just about makes it in time. Bangladesh might have done better to go for Roy at the other end.

Hasan Mehidy comes into the attack as Mashrade Mortaza turns to his middle-over spinners to try and break this partnership, or even try to slow it down!

He finds a bit of turn in his final delivery and hits Bairstow's pads. There's a half-hearted appeal that is turned down an no DRS appeal follows.

18 England 120-0 Jason Roy 69 Jonny Bairstow 46

Bangladesh have absolutely nothing else to offer against England as Bairstow clips away Mortaza's delivery, flicking it between fine leg and deep-square leg for four.

DRINKS!
