Captain Eoin Morgan is hoping for a better fielding effort as England seek to get their World Cup campaign back on track following their shocking loss to Pakistan.
Bidding to win their maiden title in the sport's showpiece, the hosts started their campaign with a convincing 104-run victory against South Africa before they stumbled in their second game, losing by 14 runs to Pakistan.
They now clash with Bangladesh who shocked South Africa in an earlier match.
"We didn't deserve to win the game. But we played some really good cricket, two guys scored a hundred and we nearly chased down 350," Morgan said in his pre-match press conference in the Welsh capital Friday.
"We lacked a bit in the field. And that still remains the case. Hopefully we put in a better showing in the field," the skipper added.
Morgan searched for positives in the defeat.
