Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of Bangladesh is the Player of the Match for his all-round performance. He says that they wanted to give the youngsters a chance and planned that spin would be useful on this pitch. He adds that he wanted to regain his batting form after a poor Asia Cup and says that as the ball gets older it is easier to hit. He adds that the off spinner was very useful and appreciates Tanzim Hasan Sakib who bowled brilliantly and got important wickets. On the World Cup preparation, he says that the team looks good and is confident that they will be a side to fear.

Time for the presentations…

India’s skipper Rohit Sharma says that the changes were because he wanted to give some game time to the youngsters. He says that Axar’s batting was brilliant and was brilliant out there even after being hit. He credits the opposition bowlers for bowling good lengths and even Gill’s hundred for keeping them in the game. Credits Gill for his game sense and confidence and says that he has clarity for what he has to do out in the middle and that he is there at each practice.

Tanzim Hasan Sakib is up for a chat. He says that the wicket of Rohit Sharma is his debut wicket and it felt like a dream. Adds that he focuses on the line and length He says he prepares for longer spells. He mentions that the last ball the yorker was planned and he backed himself. He also says that he is going home after winning against India and on a positive note.

Earlier in the game, after Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bowl first, Bangladesh were rocked early as they lost both openers inside the first four overs. They were pegged back even more by the Indian seamers and found themselves struggling at 59-4. Shakib Al Hasan and Towhid Hridoy then got together and forged a solid recovery with a 101-run stand. Shakib’s 80 and Towhid’s 54 allowed Bangladesh to get their innings on track. Towards the end, contributions from Nasum Ahmed and Mahedi Hasan helped Bangladesh post a competitive total on the board. For India, Shardul Thakur was the pick of the bowlers, with figures of 3 for 65 from his ten overs.

To be fair to India, they made five changes in their quest to test the bench strength, but they were outplayed by a spirited Bangladesh side. In their pursuit of 266 on a tricky surface, India were off to a shaky start as they lost their in-form skipper Rohit Sharma on the second legal ball of the chase. The move to send debutant Tilak Varma at 3 did not work out, as an error in judgement led to his downfall. Shubman Gill and KL Rahul showed good application against the moving new ball and calmed the nerves in the dressing room. Just when it looked like the two batters had got their eye in, Rahul perished which put India in more trouble. Despite the fall of wickets at the other end, Shubman Gill stood strong and kept the scoreboard ticking from one end. After reaching yet another sublime hundred, he began to up the ante but lost his wicket in the process and took India’s hopes with him. The hopes were reignited when Axar Patel was batting but his departure in the penultimate over, sealed his side’s fate.

Bangladesh halt India’s juggernaut with a stunning victory! Shakib Al Hasan’s men punch above their weight to bow out of the Asia Cup on a high. They get the better of India in Men’s Asia Cup cricket for the first time since 2012. Having finished strongly with the bat, Bangladesh were expected to take the momentum into their bowling effort, and they certainly did. Playing in his maiden ODI game, Tanzim Hasan Sakib accounted for Rohit Sharma in his first over before breaching the defence of Tilak Varma in the following over. What did not help Bangladesh’s cause was that the experienced Mustafizur Rahman lacked rhythm and could not support the debutant from the other end. In the middle phase, it was a trial by spin by Bangladesh, with the spin quartet bowling with excellent control and being rewarded with wickets at regular intervals. At the death, Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Mustafizur Rahman held their nerves to seal a memorable victory.
