India Cricket Team beat Bangladesh by 50 runs in Antigua
In ICC T20 WC Super Eight stage India beat Bangladesh by 50 runs to clinch a semi-final berth after a comfortable 50-run win against Bangladesh in a Super 8s match on Saturday.
Riding on a half-century from vice-captain Hardik Pandya (50 off 27 balls) and useful knocks from Virat Kohli (37), Rishabh Pant (36) and Shivam Dube (34), India posted 196 for 5, the highest T20I total at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium.
In reply while chasing the target Bangladesh were all at sea against Kuldeep Yadav’s (3/19 in 4 overs) left-arm wrist spin as they managed only 146 for 8 in the end.
Pandya showed his all-round prowess with a scalp as only captain Najmul Hossain Shanto (40 off 32 balls) looked comfortable in the middle. Jasprit Bumrah (2/13 in 4 overs) was economical as ever.
