Toss Update

India win the toss and chose to bat.

Rohit Sharma Post Toss

We will bat. Not for any particular reason, conditions here look a bit challenging. Virat arrived yesterday, he's going to miss out, the rest are all available and we'll see how to use them. We arrived quite early, so the body clock has adjusted, we just have to see how well we can adjust to these conditions.

Sanju Samson, Rohit Sharma Open For India

Mahedi Hasan opens the bowling attack as Sanju Samson and Rohit Sharma step up to kick off India's batting innings.

India 5/0

Sanju Samson Out Early

After five wides! The ball strays down the leg side, evading Samson's attempted flick and the wicketkeeper, resulting in five runs. Samson tries to flick again but hits it straight to the short fine-leg fielder. Another shot by Samson, this time to extra-cover, but straight to the fielder. Samson falls early.

India 19/1

Rohit Sharma Ends Third Over With A Six

Rohit Sharma's shot was a sight to behold as he effortlessly flicked the ball over long leg, sending it soaring for a SIX. With a smooth pick-up and shovel technique, he expertly maneuvered the shot, allowing the ball to come to him before executing the stroke with precision. It was a display of sheer skill and timing from the Indian batsman, delighting fans with his impeccable shot-making ability.

A Partnership Blooming

In the match, as Shakib Al Hasan bowled his second over, Rishabh Pant showcased his aggressive batting prowess. Pant smashed three consecutive sixes off Shakib's bowling, propelling India's score past the fifty-run mark. The first six came from a powerful shot over square leg, followed by a reverse sweep behind point for the second, and a third six to end the over in style. Pant's onslaught added 22 valuable runs to India's total in just one over.

India 61/2

Sharma Out, Pant Holds Firm After Two Early Wickets

Rohit Sharma got caught by Rishad Hossain! That's the second wicket for Bangladesh - tossed up invitingly by Mahmudullah, Rohit couldn't resist the big lofted drive, but the ball dropped in front of him and he can't quite get the elevation needed on the shot, hammers it flat and right down Rishad's throat at long-on.

Pant And SKY Fire Up India's Innings With Explosive Runs

Both Rishabh Pant and Surya Kumar Yadav are batting brilliantly for India, pushing the team towards 100 runs. They're playing smart, hitting boundaries whenever they get the chance. Their partnership is getting stronger, and they're showing great teamwork on the field.

Pant's 50 Brings India To 100, Retires After A Four

Shakib bowls a delivery pitched up at the stumps, and Pant capitalizes by heaving it towards the left of long-on for a boundary, securing fifty on his return to the national team. After bringing India to 100, he retires and walks out.

After Mirroring Pant's Boundaries Shivam Dube Caught By Mahmudullah

Superb catch in the deep by Mahmudullah! Shivam Dube advance down the track. He does on this occasion to get closer to the length of the ball and slaps it down the ground. Long-on moves to his right and takes a good shoulder high catch that was travelling quickly towards him. Realises he might fall over, throws the ball up and then adjusts once again to complete the catch. 

Sir Jadeja Walks In With An Appeal For Stumping

After Ravindra Jadeja's first ball, there was an appeal for stumping. Seems out, Jadeja had no part behind the line. Given not out. The camera angles aren't the best here, so benefit seems to have gone towards Jadeja. The batter got benefit of the doubt.

Pandya Steps Up To The Crease, Wasting No Opportunity

Hardik Pandya looks in great from. He showcased his prowess as he expertly maneuvered Shoriful Islam's short-length delivery, targeting the region near the rib cage. With precision, he consistently located the spaces between fielders, confidently striking boundaries for his team.

India 182/5 In 20 overs

India set a good target for Bangladesh, now it's time for them to chase. Will Bangladesh successfully chase the target against their South Asian rivals, or will India conclude the warm-up match on a dominating note?

Tanzid Hasan And Soumya Sarkar Begin Bangladesh's Chase

Tanzid Hasan and Soumya Sarkar begin Bangladesh's chase. But Arshdeep got better plans for India. Arshdeep Singh bowls to Soumya Sarkar, who is caught by Pant! Sarkar tries to drive but gets a thin edge. Pant takes the catch easily. Sarkar goes for a duck, giving India an ideal beginning.

Bangladesh 6/1

Arshdeep's Dominance

After trapping Soumya Sarkar, Litton Das falls victim to Arshdeep Singh's delivery, bowled out as he chops on! The ball nipped back in sharply from a length, catching Litton off guard as he was late to bring his bat down. Playing with an angle, he managed to graze the inside edge, only to see the ball crash into the top of off-stump.

Bangladesh 19/3

Axar Patel To Bowl Last Over Of The Power-Play

Three wides, a disappointing delivery from Axar, darted quicker and well down leg, even a diving Pant can't get to it - it's a slow outfield and the ball is hauled back, three wides added to the total.

Bangladesh 39/3

Axar Sets Up Trap For Towhid Hridoy, Jadega Catches The Long Shot, Pandya Takes A Wicket

Just in 8th over and Bangladesh have lost half their side. On a good length and just outside off, bowled into the pitch and Tanzid doesn't get any power behind the lofted drive, tamely lobs it up. Pandya sets the trap and Arshdeep does the rest, running to his right at mid-off. 

Bangladesh 50/5

Kuldeep Yadav Into The Attack

Shakib goes for a paddle sweep first ball and get a couple of runs. Cut away through point by Mahmudullah for a single and 50 up for Bangladesh in 10.3 overs. FOUR! Reverse-sweep by Mahmudullah and he gets a boundary at third-man. Eleven runs from Kuldeep’s first over. 

Bangladesh 66/5

Mahmudullah's Heroics Revives Bangladesh's Innings

One six and two fours, Mahmudullah is giving it his all to bring Bangladesh back into the chase with a six and two fours. Despite his valiant efforts, India is still leading, maintaining their strong position in the match.

Bangladesh 119/8

Dube To Bowl The 20th over

Shivam Dube into the attack, sends a bowl to Mahedi Hasan. He gets caught by Axar! Pace off and very full from Dube, Mahedi tries to get it and hoist it down the ground. Axar who was backtracking from long-on and takes a good catch above his shoulders. Mahedi Hasan c Axar b Shivam Dube 1(4)

Bangladesh 120/9

Pant, Pandya, Arshdeep, Dube Shine As India Defeat Bangladesh By 60 Runs

Right from the start, India ran the show. Pant and Hardik hammered boundaries while the Indian bowlers were spot-on, never missing a beat. Meanwhile, Bangladesh had their share of fumbles, losing wickets and ground. But in the end, India triumphed by a solid 60 runs.
