How are England shaping up for Cricket World Cup title defence after white-ball tour of Bangladesh?

England's exhausting but exhilarating winter wrapped with a rather humiliating 3-0 series defeat to Bangladesh in their T20 series, but what did we learn from their white-ball tour as a whole?

Jos Buttler's side opened strongly, securing back-to-back wins in claiming a 2-1 ODI series win before a depleted T20 squad was swept aside in the shorter format.

With no further white-ball cricket until August, how are the holders of both World Cups shaping up ahead of their 50-over title defence in India come October?

We assess some of the positives as well as the concerns to come out of Bangladesh...

The most contentious issue from the 3-0 T20I series defeat to end the tour of Bangladesh has been the balance of England's side, with the tourist lacking in batting depth for the three T20 internationals.

Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Sam Billings and Liam Dawson were all given special dispensation to prioritise the ongoing Pakistan Super League, albeit Roy played and impressed in the ODI leg of the tour.

Already shorn of those options for the T20s, England's plight was not helped by the further withdrawal of Will Jacks with a thigh complaint, himself a late addition to the tour after Tom Abell pulled out before the first ODI due to injury.

Instead of calling up a replacement, England went in to the T20 series light in the batting department, instead choosing to give their lower-order all-rounders - Sam Curran, Moeen Ali and 18-year-old debutant Rehan Ahmed - some greater exposure to the sort of tricky conditions that will be similar to those presented in India come the 50-over World Cup in October.
