Defending champions England booked its place in the semi-finals of the Women’s World Cup with a comfortable 100-run win over Bangladesh here on Sunday.

Sophia Dunkley’s 72-ball 67 helped the reigning champions post 234 for six at Basin Reserve and a polished bowling performance, led yet again by Sophie Ecclestone’s economical spell of 3-15, meant Bangladesh never threatened to rein in England’s total and were bowled out for 134 in the 48th over.
