Foakes hopes to inspire a winning finale
7:00am Friday 3rd February 2012
Ben Foakes and his England Under-19 team-mates will be hoping for a winning finale in the last match of their tour of Bangladesh.
They surrendered the seven-match One-Day International series after crashing to a six-wicket defeat in Sylhet on Tuesday.
Bangladesh chased 207 with more than seven overs to spare, making the overall score 4-2 ahead of tomorrow’s finale at Fatullah.
Foakes, who plays his club cricket for Colchester and East Essex and lives in Kirby-le-Soken, missed two of the matches through illness but returned on Tuesday and scored 11.
