Paul Collingwood brought Bangladesh back down to Earth as England won their day/night triangular series one-day international by 168 runs at Trent Bridge on Tuesday.
The 29-year-old Durham all-rounder became only the second man in history, after West Indies great Sir Viv Richards, to score a century and take five or more wickets in the same one-day international.
Collingwood made a personal best 112 not out and then took six for 31 with his medium-pacers, an England record return as Bangladesh, chasing 392, were bowled out for 223.

Back in 1986-1987 Richards scored 119 and took five for 41 against New Zealand in Dunedin.
stunning victory
Bangladesh, fresh from their stunning five-wicket win against world champions Australia in Cardiff on Saturday, were all but out of the game after conceding 391 for four -- the second largest international limited-overs total of all time.
Only Sri Lanka, with 398 for five against non-Test side Kenya in Kandy at the 1995-1996 World Cup, had scored more in the 2,252 game history of one-day internationals.
Andrew Strauss made a one-day international best 152 off 128 balls with 19 fours and put on 210 with Collingwood, both men making their second one-day international centuries.
Collingwood faced just 86 balls with five sixes and 10 fours as Bangladesh conceded their highest one-day total, surpassing the 348 for five that India piled up in Dhaka in December.
England meanwhile comfortably overhauled their best of 363 for seven against Pakistan at Trent Bridge in 1992.
They then saw debutant fast bowler Chris Tremlett, in for the rested Darren Gough, take two wickets in two balls to reduce Bangladesh to 30 for two.
Tremlett, who took four for 32, finished the match, when he bowled Mohammad Rafique for 19.
The 23-year-old, who'd taken a hat-trick here earlier this month for Hampshire against Nottinghamshire, was denied another when Mohammad Ashraful played the ball onto the top of his stumps only for the bails to stay put.
Ashraful, Bangladesh's hero in Cardiff with a run-a-ball hundred, cashed in with a breathtaking 52-ball 94 with three sixes and 11 fours.
Collingwood then had Bangladesh captain Habibul Bashar taken at short-extra cover by Strauss and next ball held a caught and bowled off a leading edge from the dangerous Aftab Ahmed.
Khaled Mashud survived the hat-trick but was well caught down the legside by wicketkeeper Geraint Jones, as Collingwood passed his previous best-of four for 38 against New Zealand at Napier in 2002.
And when he bowled Mashrafe Mortaza for nought with a looping full toss off his last ball, he went past Mark Ealham's England record of five for 15 against Zimbabwe at Kimberley in 2000.
Strauss, dropped twice in the 20s, also shared an opening stand of 141 with fellow left-hander Marcus Trescothick (85),as the pair -- who'd put on an unbroken 192 in England's 10-wicket series opening win against Bangladesh on Thursday -- dominated the attack once more.
Tapash Baisya, who took three for 69 on Saturday, saw his seven overs go for 87 runs after Vaughan won the toss.
Nazmul Hossain (three for 83), eventually had Strauss lbw, having earlier had him twice dropped in the 20s by 19-year-old Nafees off difficult chances at short gully.
Trescothick was in sight of a 10th hundred at this level when he skied Hossain to Nafees at mid-off. He'd faced just 65 balls, including two sixes and 14 fours.
Following his 100 not out at The Oval and scores of 194 and 151 in England's 2-0 Test series win, Trescothick had taken his personal tally against Bangladesh this season to 530 runs at an average of 176.66.
Collingwood was especially severe on Rafique, twice sweeping the left-arm spinner for six.
Strauss brought up England's 300 with an outrageous shot, stepping well outside off-stump before flicking Mortaza down to long-on for four, a stroke he repeated several times.
England remained top of the table with Bangladesh still second. The next series match was yesterday's Durham day/nighter between England and Australia.
Vaughan out
England captain Michael Vaughan was ruled out of yesterday's triangular series one-day international before play got under way in the day/night match at the Riverside.
Vaughan suffered a groin strain during England's 168-run win over Bangladesh on Tuesday.
Earlier yesterday, Warwickshire batsman Ian Bell was added to England's one-day squad as cover.
This match was only the third Vaughan had missed since becoming England captain in 2003 following last year's Lord's Test against New Zealand and a one-day international against South Africa in Port Elizabeth in February.
England are attempting to claim three successive one-day international victories over Australia for the first time since 1997 following Sunday's three-wicket triangular win in Bristol and September's six-wicket ICC Champions Trophy semi-final success at Edgbaston.
Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday fought through a second-set slump to post a roller-coaster 6-1, 2-6, 6-3 victory over Damir Dzumhur in his opening match at the Cincinnati Open. The Spaniard, playing his first tournament since losing to Jannik Sinner in the Wimbledon final, raced through the first set, but completely lost his way in the second, dropping his serve twice against the 33-year-old Bosnian. Alcaraz regained his intensity and cut down his errors in the third set as a seventh ace took him to a match point that was converted when Dzumhur fired wide. “It was just a roller coaster,” said the second
NEXT ROUND: World No. 1s Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka opened their title defenses with straight-sets wins, while Iga Swiatek and Taylor Fritz also advanced Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka got their title defenses off to smooth starts as they powered into the third round of the ATP-WTA Cincinnati Open on Saturday. The men’s and women’s top seeds, each ranked No. 1 in the world, were both competing for the first time since Wimbledon, where Sinner lifted the title and Sabalenka bowed out in the women’s semi-finals. Sinner crushed Colombian Daniel Elahi Galan 6-1, 6-1 in steamy afternoon weather, while Sabalenka beat 2023 Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova 7-5, 6-1 under the lights of the night session. Sabalenka needed 54 minutes and a service break in the final game
Taiwan’s men’s basketball team on Monday clinched a spot in the FIBA Asia Cup quarter-finals with a 78-64 win over Jordan in Saudi Arabia, securing their best finish in the tournament since placing fourth in 2013. The win was sweet revenge for Taiwan, who were denied a quarter-final spot by Jordan at the same stage of the previous Asia Cup in 2022 after blowing a nine-point lead in the final minute and losing 97-96 on a half-court buzzer-beater. “History is part of the journey,” Taiwan head coach Gianluca Tucci said when asked about the 2022 collapse of the team, who he did
TECH ISSUES: Before Sinner’s match against Diallo the lights went out at the courts, and during it the electronic line-calling system partly failed and an alarm sounded Jannik Sinner on Monday ignored technical issues interruptions and a blaring alarm to defeat Gabriel Diallo 6-2, 7-6 (8/6) on a day of distractions at the Cincinnati Open. The top-seeded defending champion got down to business against the 35th-ranked Canadian, who was plagued by eight first-set double faults and 49 unforced errors in the match as he faced the best in the world. Sinner recovered smoothly from an early break down and had his hands full on his way into the fourth round, sending over an ace on match point after saving a set point in the tiebreaker. Play was stopped briefly with
