2:00 PM IST: It continued to rain in Southampton. And the match will be affected. That's the news.

1:55 PM IST: This will be a huge week. All the top four teams in the table -- New Zealand, Australia, India and England have tournament-defining matches. READ our sneak peek.

1:50 PM IST: Relive that sensational Mohammed Shami hattrick against Afghanistan HERE.

1:30 PM IST: This is the final fixture of Cricket World Cup 2019 at The Rose Bowl. Here's how you can explore history, wildlife and the coastal regions of the busiest cruise port of England, that is Southampton.

Bangladesh are almost out of the contention of making it to the semifinals with five points from six games. However, if they manage to win all their three remaining games and results of matches of other teams go in their favour, the Tigers might sneak in the top four at the end of the round-robin league stage. 

Bangladesh will rely on their batting, which has been a revelation in this World Cup. Shakib Al Hasan, who is the second leading scorer of the tournament, will once again lead the charge. And his presence in the centre will be crucial for the Tigers once again.

After hunting down a target of 322 against West Indies with ease, Mashrafe Mortaza & Co fought admirably in a 382-run chase against Australia, finishing with an impressive 333/8.

However, it's their bowling which has undone the batsmen's good work. They have conceded scores in excess of 320 in each of their last three completed games. 

And against a formidable Afghanistan bowling attack, Bangladesh's own bowlers will have to step up to make life easier for their batsmen.

Afghanistan will be aiming to replicate that performance against India and earn their first win. After being comprehensively beaten in the first four games, Afghanistan came out with a much-improved performance against tournament favourites India.

Their bowling unit -- which was taken for plenty by England as they posted 397/8 - delivered a commanding performance against the famed Indian batting line-up for a below-par total of 224. They, in fact, had a great chance of causing the biggest upset of the ongoing tournament. But, their batsmen, barring Mohammad Nabi, failed to rise to the occasion.

Gulbadin Naib would hope that both his batsmen and bowlers perform well as a unit against Bangladesh which have looked quite convincing in the ongoing tournament.
