England will miss the World Cup finals after a humiliating 15-run loss to Bangladesh on Monday night.

In their do-or-die fixture, England perished as Bangladesh created history by making the World Cup's knockout stage for the first time.

After Mohammad Mahmudullah posted the first World Cup century by a Bangladeshi in his side's 7-275, England were bowled out for 260 in 48.3 overs at Adelaide Oval.

England, cruelled by a mid-order collapse of 3-11 in 21 balls, can't advance beyond the group stage regardless of the outcome of their last pool match against Afghanistan.

England imploded when Ian Bell was dismissed: the stylish opener laid a solid platform with 63 from 82 balls, guiding his side to a comfortable 2-121 in the 27th over.

But once the English rock was outed, the rest crumbled until some late near-heroics from Jos Buttler (65 from 52 balls) and Chris Woakes (42 not out from 40 balls).

Bangladeshi paceman Rubel Hossain snared Bell's wicket and just three balls later captain Eoin Morgan was caught on the square leg fence for a duck.

Three overs later, James Taylor (1) nicked Taskin Ahmed to slip; within six more overs Joe Root (29) had fallen and England were gasping at 6-163 in the 35th over.

And they couldn't be resuscitated despite Buttler's classy knock raising their hopes - when he was dismissed, England needed 38 runs from 25 balls.

Next over, Chris Jordan was controversially run out - video replays showed his bat behind the crease but television umpire Simon Fry ruled the willow wasn't grounded - and Woakes was ultimately left stranded when the rest of the tail folded.

While England's batting will be blamed, their bowlers earlier let Bangladesh off the hook.

After a dream start by Jimmy Anderson - he claimed two victims to leave Bangladesh reeling at 2-8 after 13 balls, Mahmudullah played a gem of an innings.

The elegant right-hander steadied his nation in an 89-run partnership with Sioumya Sarkar (40 from 52 balls) for the third wicket.

And Mahmudullah then combined for a dynamic 141-run stand from 144 deliveries with an aggressive Mushfiqur Rahim, who smacked 89 from 77 balls.
