England have been knocked out of the 2015 Cricket World Cup after succumbing to a 15-run defeat

against Bangladesh in a Pool A clash of the World Cup today. After being inserted into bat by England

skipper Eoin Morgan, Bangladesh posted a competitive total of 275/7 from their 50 overs thanks to

Mahmudullah’s maiden century in One-Day International (ODI) history.

In reply, England got bowled out for 260, with the failure to build any substantial partnerships costing

them dearly. Courtesy of Bangladesh’s famous victory, they now have 7 points in 5 matches and are

guaranteed a place in the quarterfinals while England will be going home after playing a consolation

game against Afghanistan next.

Here are the best tweets from the match:

DO NOT SAY WE HAVENT PRIORITISED ODI CRICKET! We played a back to back

Ashes to make sure England played 6 months of ODI's before this WC!

England players have same face on right now as captain Russell from Lagaan did

when he found out he was standing beyond the boundary line

I still think the minnows should be retained. Plucky England has spread so much joy

in this #WC2015.

It's a sensational effort for England to go out in the 1st round of a tournament

arranged specifically to make that as difficult as possible

Hope nobody has called it an 'upset', for this isn't. Dedicate this win to the

Bangladesh fans who stood by the team in thick and thin.

At least England have avoided another quarter-final exit. We'd have taken that before

the tournament. #takethepositives
