England meet Bangladesh in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday in a potentially tricky clash as the T20 World Cup gathers pace.

England, top of Group I, are looking to build on their victory over defending champions West Indies in the opener, while Bangladesh are second-bottom after losing to Sri Lanka in an ill-tempered clash.

It will be the first T20 meeting between the two sides and England wicket-keeper-batsman Jos Buttler said: "Winning momentum is vital. The way the tournament is set out, there's not much room for mistakes.

"We can take lots of confidence from the first game, it's fantastic to get a win on the board.
