India and Pakistan meet in their first match of the tournament, which begins on June 1.

The first match of the tournament, scheduled for Thursday, pits hosts England against Bangladesh.

England showed some fine form in beating South Africa 2-1 in the bilateral series, but their batting came to grief in the last game.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, had a torrid time against the Indian bowlers in their practice match, going down by a massive margin.
