Match Summary of India vs Bangladesh:
Bangladesh was dismissed for a mere 127 runs, showcasing a lackluster batting performance against a disciplined Indian bowling attack after India opted to field first. Arshdeep Singh set the tone by removing both openers early, maintaining constant pressure throughout the innings. Bangladesh struggled to find any momentum, compounded by several poor shot selections.
Varun Chakravarthy initially conceded 15 runs in his first over but bounced back impressively, claiming three wickets in his return to T20I cricket. Mayank Yadav contributed with a maiden over and took the crucial wicket of Mahmudullah, while Washington Sundar and Hardik Pandya also chipped in with wickets. Mehidy Hasan top-scored with an unbeaten 35, but it was not enough to prevent their collapse.
India cruised to a convincing victory, showcasing their depth despite missing key players. The young squad demonstrated immense talent, with only Shanto and Mehidy Hasan offering any resistance for Bangladesh. The Bangladeshi batting lineup struggled, with many dismissals resulting from ill-advised shots. Given the slow pitch, their total of 127 was never going to challenge India’s formidable batting lineup.
Abhishek Sharma began aggressively but was run out due to a miscalculation. Suryakumar Yadav set the tone early, while Sanju Samson complemented him with elegant strokes. Although Suryakumar’s quick innings and Samson’s fall momentarily raised concerns, Hardik Pandya and Nitish Reddy ensured a smooth chase, leading India to victory with 49 balls to spare.
