IND beat BAN by 3 wickets | India vs Bangladesh, Highlights And Cricket Score Final ODI Match - Commentary

That concludes our coverage for this year's Asia Cup. On one hand, two giant teams - Pakistan and Sri Lanka slipped, while on the other hand two not-so-giant-teams - Afghanistan and Bangladesh punched above their weight and reminded that they are no pushovers. Among all that, India emerged as the most dominant force and were the deserving winners. A last-ball finish in the final was the icing on the cake. On that note, we bid you farewell. Do join us for future games. Cheers!

Rohit Sharma now joins his teammates on the podium to receive the trophy. He then hands it over to the youngest member of the squad - Khaleel Ahmed. A tradition started by MS Dhoni. Some really happy faces there as the fireworks go up again. A team photograph follows and now every player is taking his turn to pose with the golden trophy. You can later check it out on their instagram or twitter accounts.

Victorious skipper, Rohit Sharma says that they played some good cricket throughout the tournament and this is a reward for that. Praises his players for handling the pressure of the final and mentions that crossing the line was a great effort. Credits Bangladesh for batting well and putting pressure on them. Lauds his spinners for pulling things back in the middle. With a team like that a captain will always look good, Rohit states with a big smile on his face. Signs off by thanking the crowd who came out in numbers to support India.

Bangladesh's skipper, Mashrafe Mortaza says that they fought till the last ball but rues the mistakes they committed while batting and fielding. Feels that they were a few runs short but praises his bowlers for giving their all. On preferring Mustafizur Rahman to bowl the penultimate over, Mortaza replies that India were scoring almost every ball and it was important for him to keep a lid on it as he didn't want the spinner to be charged.

Man of the Tournament, Shikhar Dhawan says that it was a fantastic tournament for him and he enjoyed the way he batted and hopes to carry on with same class and consistency. Adds that he enjoys to bat freely and in a mature way. Says that Rohit's consistency at the top matters to him and they balance it out (by switching roles of aggressors) and congratulates his skipper for having a great Asia Cup with the bat.

Liton Das is awarded the Man of the Match for his superb knock with the bat. No interview taken. He must be disheartened that his maiden ODI ton has gone in a losing cause. Still, a great effort by him.

Ha ha! And here comes the main man! How could he be left behind? The man behind the scenes - Coach Ravi Shastri. He cannot hide his glee. Is not too bothered about what happened in England as this is a different format. Is pleased about the intensity shown by his lads. Admits that the team was a bit flat against Hong Kong but then pulled up its socks. On the positives, he identifies the ability to keep picking up wickets while feels the batting was brilliant. But for Mr. Shastri, the department which pleased him the most was India's fielding. Raves about how the fielders used to dive here and there to save crucial runs. Praises Rohit Sharma for his batting and even more, his captaincy skills. Especially, in this final, where he managed to get his team pick up all 10 wickets even after Bnagladesh were 120/0. And now finally, the presentation...

Bhuvneshwar Kumar is up for grabs as well. He says that the game against Hong Kong was a wake-up call for him. It was needed as he was coming from an injury. On wickets like these, he says that one needs to bowl tight lines and lengths, without giving any room to the batsmen and induce mistakes. On his combination with Bumrah, he says that the latter is an amazing bowler with his stocks rapidly rising.

Ravindra Jadeja is the next in line. Jaddu says that he was out of international cricket for almost 15 months and was not feeling too good about it. In hibernation, he says that he was just thinking about what he could do to come back into this side. And when he did get the chance, he did not want to lose it. Stresses further that he desperately wanted to prove himself.

Kuldeep Yadav now. He says that he was just asked by Jadhav to back himself while playing his shots and be careful while running. On the wicket, he says that it was a very good one to bat on. A bit on the slower side, he reckons. Feels he bowled really well and the batsmen found it difficult to pick his line. Later on, he corrected his length and got rewarded. On his batting, he says he has got lots of runs in First Class cricket, so he is a batting all-rounder.

Plenty of people to talk to tonight. Kedar Jadhav is the first of them. He says that he has been in this situation for quite a number of times in the last few months. Stresses that he was never under pressure as he was confident about the batting of Bhuvneshwar and Kuldeep. On his hamstring, he says he will need to assess it in a couple of days. And now, the million dollar question. 'Are you a batsman who can bowl or a bowler who can bat?' asks Kevin Pietersen with a wide grin. 'I think I am a batsman who can bowl', replies a sheepish Kedar.

Bangladesh must be praised for their efforts today. First their move to send Mehidy Hasan to open with Liton Das worked wonders, although the batting that followed disappointed. In the field, they managed to build pressure with accurate bowling but somewhere not having a target in excess of 250 proved to be their undoing. India also planned their chase with near perfection as they never allowed the required run rate to jump over 6, except on the fifth ball of the penultimate over. Rubel Hossain was the star with the ball and one can feel that their spinners let them down by not providing regular breakthroughs.

With MS Dhoni dismissed and Kedar Jadhav unable to move freely, the Indian team management decided to call him back and sent Bhuvneshwar Kumar to partner Ravindra Jadeja. In a way, that turned out to be the masterstroke as the pair put together a 45-run partnership to narrow down the target. Things later on got too close for comfort as Bangladesh showed great resolve by sticking in there. However, they didn't have enough runs on the board and in the hindsight not batting those 9 balls in their innings has hurt them badly.

Mahmudullah struck in the 31st over to remove Karthik and post that Kedar Jadhav came out with positive intent. But then he pulled his hamstring and it resulted in a slow rotation of strike. That pressure got to Dhoni and in an attempt to keep the asking rate under check, he played an uncharacteristic rash shot to get out off Mustafizur Rahman's bowling.

Seventh Asia Cup title for India! And they had to sweat hard to earn it. Chasing a target is never easy in a final and it looked a bit tough when they lost Dhawan and Rayudu quite cheaply. Rohit, however, showed his form and kept on scoring from one end. Along with Dinesh Karthik, the Indian skipper stitched in a partnership but once he fell, Bangladesh sniffed a chance. Although, MS Dhoni accompanied Karthik after that and steadied the nerves with a vital 54-run stand. These two planned the chase very nicely and at that stage, India were in control of the chase.

Fireworks all around the stadium! Smiles in the Indian dressing room. Mashrafe Mortaza is dejected. Bangladesh came close but have suffered yet another narrow defeat. What a game! Worthy of a finale. It went right down to the wire and India will be more relieved than happy to pull it off. This is also their 700th international win.

Mahmudullah to Kedar Jadhav. INDIA WIN BY 3 WICKETS! Mahmudullah fires in a full ball down the leg side, Jadhav swings his bat across the line but misses. However, the ball kisses his pads and races away towards fine leg. They cross for a leg bye and that will be it. INDIA ARE THE ASIA CUP CHAMPIONS!

Mahmudullah pulls out. Mind games.

Mahmudullah to Kuldeep Yadav. Scores are levelled! Flighted and on off, Yadav tries to sweep but misses. It goes off his pads towards backward point. Rahim runs across to his left and the batsmen cross over. Given as a run.

Mahmudullah to Kuldeep Yadav. DOT BALL! Mahmudullah bowls this with a slinging action. Darts it in full around off, Kuldeep pushes it out to covers.

Mahmudullah to Kuldeep Yadav. Excellent shot! Kuldeep goes down on one knee and slog sweeps it over mid-wicket. It falls in no man's land in the deep and they fetch a couple of runs. 2 needed off 3 balls.

Mahmudullah to Kedar Jadhav. They are doing it in singles. Smart. Bangladesh have their fielders on the boundary line for Jadhav and he just flicks it through square leg for a run.

Mahmudullah to Kuldeep Yadav. Sensible. Calm. Shows no pressure. Full and flighted around off, Kuldeep eases his drive through mid off and collects a single. More importantly for India, Kedar Jadhav is back on strike.

It indeed is Soumya Sarkar. He bowled one in the Nidahas Trophy final and conceded a six off the final ball. Redemption time? 6 needed off 6. Kuldeep Yadav on strike. Hold onto your breath, folks. Scratch all that. Mashrafe Mortaza has a change of heart. He has given the ball to Mahmudullah. Maybe, he got reminded of that final. Big gamble. Conference going on. Pressure written all over. Here we go...

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. Smashes and finds the gap. Shortish and outside off, angling away, Jadhav stays back and slams it through point. The fielder in the deep makes a tumbling stop and they take a couple. Rahim is not happy with the effort.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. Shortish and on off, Jadhav chops it down to point. Another dot ball. Something going to happen on the last ball. For the first time the required rate has gone over 6.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. Action replay of the last delivery. Once again Jadhav plays it with an angled bat but finds point.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. A length delivery angling away from the batsman, Jadhav pushes it through the line but finds the point fielder.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kuldeep Yadav. A cutter landing outside off, Kuldeep reaches out for it and inside edges it in front of square leg. They cross for a quick single and Kedar Jadhav is on strike. All up to him. 8 needed off 10 balls.

Kuldeep Yadav arrives.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. OUT! Great catch by Rahim! Kumar is not waiting, he immediately starts to walk. Rahman with the goods. He angles across a shortish delivery outside off, Kumar tries to force it through the line but gets a thick outside edge behind. Rahim reacts swiftly to his right and grabs the catch. He tosses the ball up in celebration and this game takes yet another turn. Too close for comfort, this.

Bangladesh seem to be short of options. Mustafizur is bowling out now. If this game goes down to the 50th over, who will bowl? Mehidy? Mahmudullah? Or like the Nidahas Trophy final - Soumya Sarkar?

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Shortish and on off, it's punched down the ground for a single. Runs needed in single digit now. 9 off 12.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Played to the point region by the batsman. Dot ball.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. On a good length outside off, Kumar helps it on the leg side but finds mid-wicket.

Rubel Hossain to Kedar Jadhav. Shortish and on off, Jadhav turns it through square leg and sets off for a run. Immediately limps and then ambles across to the other end. Hmm...

11 needed from 16 balls. KEDAR JADHAV returns. Seems all right as he is not limping. India will hope that he finishes things off quickly.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. OUT! Snickometer detects a massive spike and Jadeja has to walk back. Needless from him. Do Bangladesh still have a sniff? It is all happening in Dubai. A ball before, Jaddu could have been run out. Next ball, he is gone. A length ball, in line of the stumps, moving away, Jadeja backs away slightly and looks to go through the off side. Seems to have missed it but Rahim behind has heard something. He immediately runs down towards the umpire in celebration and furiously signals for the review when the wicket is not given. And dear me - Snickometer proves him right!

Drama! Bangladesh look extremely confident. They reckon Jadeja has nicked it behind. Has he? The review has been taken by the fielding side.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. Quick single. Back of a length delivery on off, Jadeja punches it down towards mid off and rushes across to the other end. His partner is ball-watching initially and when he turns, Jadeja was almost there, a near-collision. They avoid that and complete the run as the fielder misses his shy at the non-striker's end. More to it. No one has backed up the throw. An extra run stolen as well. The direct hit would have consumed Jadeja, the replays show.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. FOUR! Welcome runs for India! Rahman errs in his line and bowls it down the leg side. Bhuvneshwar does well to neatly deflect it off his pads to the fine leg fence. All the good work done in this over by the Fizz has gone down the drain. 13 needed off 18 now.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Another delivery straighter in line, Kumar works it on the leg side but finds mid-wicket.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Good length delivery in line of the stumps, Kumar keeps it out off his back foot. A few dots and the required rate has gone over 5.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. Slower delivery this time, Jadeja waits and glides it down to third man for a run. 17 off 21, uff...this is close.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. A bit shortish and on off, Jadeja punches it off his back foot to point, again. Two dot balls.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. Dot ball to begin the spell. On a length around off, Jadeja taps it off his back foot to point.

Mustafizur Rahman is back on. He bowled a great spell against Afghanistan at the death to pull off a win. Can he do something similar tonight in the all-important finale?

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. Direct hit was needed, probably! A length ball on off, Jadeja punches it straight to mid off and takes the fielder on. He hares across to the other end as the fielder misses his shy at the bowler's end. An 8-run over has brought the equation to 18 from 24 balls.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. Back of a length delivery on middle, Jadeja pushes it back from the crease. The bowler makes a half stop and parries it on the off side. RJ looks for a run but then returns after seeing the mid off fielder charge towards the ball.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Angles it in from middle and leg, Kumar fails to flick and it goes off his pads to mid-wicket. They steal a leg bye.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. SIX! Ho! Ho! Ho! Pressure was building and Kumar has nailed his shot to release some of it, if not all. He attempted a similar one on the first ball but failed to connect then. Not this time. As soon as he gets one in his half, he makes room and lofts it nonchalantly over long off for a maximum. 20 needed off 27 balls.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. A bouncer around off, Kumar allows it through. Thought it will be called a wide for height but nothing from the square leg umpire.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Idea was right but not the execution. Full and around off, Kumar goes back and tries to hit it down the ground. Fails to middle it well. Mid on and mid off are up in the circle and that's why Bhuvi attempted that shot.

Rubel Hossain returns. 26 needed off 30 balls. Make or break moment, this.

Mahmudullah to Ravindra Jadeja. A quicker one darted on leg, Jadeja tried to flick but closed the face of the bat early. It took the leading edge and rolled back to the bowler.

Mahmudullah to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Turning down the leg side after pitching on middle, Kumar nudges it behind square leg and crosses.

Mahmudullah to Ravindra Jadeja. A slider around middle, skidding down, Jadeja clips it off his pads in front of square leg and picks one more. That's all they need to do.

Mahmudullah to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Short in length on middle, it's been pulled to deep square leg for a run.

Mahmudullah to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Smart batting! Knows that there is no fielder in the deep on the off side and hence makes room by moving down leg. Does well to loft it over covers and fetches a couple.

Mahmudullah to Ravindra Jadeja. From 'round the wicket, Mahmudullah fires it in. Short and on middle, Jadeja punches it down the ground to long on for a run. Sir doing it calmly.

Mahmudullah is back into the attack. 32 off 36 balls.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ravindra Jadeja. Switches to 'round the wicket and angles in a length ball on middle, Jadeja brings down a straight bat and pushes it to long on for a run. Mashrafe bowls out, 10-0-35-1 from the skipper. A decent effort.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Good length ball on off, Kumar punches it off his back foot towards the cover region. The fielder there misfields and parries it wide towards mid off. They cross as the fielder inside the ring mops it up.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Play and a miss! Width on offer outside off, there to be hit, Kumar flashes and misses.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Good line, it's around off and on a length. Not much room to work with and Kumar pushes it back. Mortaza dives across to his right to stop the ball but fails. However, the mid on and mid off fielders quickly get there and no run results.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Wide! Bonus run for India. Mashrafe slips this one down the leg side. Kumar shuffles across for the flick shot but misses.

Mashrafe Mortaza to bowl his final over.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Spears it full and on off, a bit of inward shape, Kumar flicks it off the inner half this time to mid-wicket. Tight over, only one run from it. Equation - 36 off 42.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Shortish and around off, Kumar goes on his toes and plays it from the inner half of the bat to the leg side. Looks for a run but Jadeja sends him back.

Rubel Hossain to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Full and angling in around off, Kumar defends it off his front foot.

A slip in place for Bhuvneshwar. Scratch that, he is now put to short third man.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. Well played! Uses the angle this time, Jadeja. It's short and leaving him outside off, Ravindra delays his shot and guides it down to third man for a run.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. A delivery around leg, Jadeja jumps out of the crease and drives it straight back. A good stop in the followthrough by Rubel.

Rubel Hossain to Ravindra Jadeja. Angles across a length ball on off, Jadeja plays it down from the crease to cover-point.

Rubel Hossain is back into the attack. He has bowled very well in the final, so far. 7-2-14-1, his figures.

Nazmul Islam to Ravindra Jadeja. Uses his feet to get down the track and forces it down to long on for a run. 8 from the over, a good one for the Men in Blue.

Nazmul Islam to Ravindra Jadeja. Sharp delivery, quick and on middle, punched down towards mid on.

Nazmul Islam to Ravindra Jadeja. FOUR! This is a great shot by Jadeja. Islam is very full and around middle, 'Sir' strides forward with a straight bat and drills it back past the bowler for a rollicking boundary. The umpire there showed good footwork as he jumped to make way. First boundary of this partnership. Slowly but steadily they are taking India close.

Nazmul Islam to Ravindra Jadeja. Poor delivery. Short and wide outside off, Jadeja reaches out for it and steers it through point and collects a couple. 42 needed off 51 balls.

Nazmul Islam to Ravindra Jadeja. Fires it in, full and on middle, Jadeja helps it off his pads but finds mid-wicket.

Nazmul Islam to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Flatter and shorter on off, Kumar goes back and punches it down to long on for a run.

Nazmul Islam to bowl.

Mehidy Hasan to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Flatter and sliding down the leg side, Kumar tries to sweep and gets it away off the top half of the bat. It's fielded at fine leg and they take three.

Mehidy Hasan to Ravindra Jadeja. Quicker and on leg, Jadeja turns it off his pads to the leg side. A run taken.

Mehidy Hasan to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Loopy and full on off, Kumar flicks but finds mid-wicket. Attacking field set by Bangladesh. They are looking to disallow the rotation strike.

Mehidy Hasan to Ravindra Jadeja. Flighted and on off, once again Jadeja is forward as he pushes it with an open-faced bat. Finds the gap at cover-point and picks a single.

Mehidy Hasan to Ravindra Jadeja. Tossed up ball on off, Jadeja gets on the front foot and pushes it with an angled bat to point.

POWERPLAY 3 time. Now, five fielders can man the boundary lines till the end. Mehidy Hasan is back on. 51 required off 60 balls. The death phase begins...

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Around middle, Kumar pushes it towards mid on, Jadeja wants the single but is sent back. That ends Powerplay 2. 115/3 for India in 30 overs. Bangladesh had managed 113, but for the loss of 5 wickets. Very much neck-and-neck.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Play and a miss! On a length outside off, Bhuvi plays inside the line and is beaten.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ravindra Jadeja. Full and around off, pushed towards point for a quick single.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ravindra Jadeja. Full and straight, defended back to the bowler.

The ball goes back but just misses the off stump! Rahim dives to his right but is unable to stop it cleanly. By the time third man can get across, the batsmen cross twice.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ravindra Jadeja. Outside off, punched towards cover. The fielder has an unnecessary shy at the bowler's end and misses.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. Quick single. Jadeja is super quick. Pushes it towards mid on and scampers through.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Gets off the mark now, with a tuck towards short mid-wicket.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Full and outside off, driven straight to cover.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. The batsman shows the full face of the bat and defends the ball off the back foot.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Outside off, pretty wide, quietly left alone.

Mustafizur Rahman to Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Almost! Full and outside off, Kumar goes chasing after it and misses!

Interesting. The Indian team management has taken a bold decision. KEDAR JADHAV IS BEING CALLED BACK. Good call. You don't need batsmen getting out at the other end because of an injured batter at the crease. BHUVNESHWAR KUMAR comes in now. He can definitely bat. India need 56 from 72 balls.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ravindra Jadeja. FOUR LEG BYES! Crucial boundary for India. Down the leg side, Jadeja misses his tickle but the ball goes off his pads behind. Rahim dives, gets his right glove to it but can only parry it to the third man fence!

Mashrafe Mortaza to Kedar Jadhav. The batsman flicks it away with a wristy shot. The batsmen have run through for a single.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Kedar Jadhav. Another appeal! A short ball outside off, KJ looks to pull but the ball goes off his thigh pads to the keeper. Height and impact both seemed to be an issue.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Kedar Jadhav. Short and outside off, Kedar mistimes his cut to point.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Kedar Jadhav. Defended off the front foot by the batsman presenting the full face of the bat.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Kedar Jadhav. Was there a nick? Don't think so. Mortaza thinks so though. He wants a review but Rahim says he is not sure. A length ball outside off, Jadhav looks to steer it to third man but misses. No spike on the Snickometer.

Mashrafe Mortaza brings himself back on. 7-0-27-1 so far. Meanwhile, a bit of a drama. KL Rahul is out in the middle, talking to Jadhav. Before that conversation could go long, umpire Marais Erasmus asks him to go away! All of a sudden, the Indian dressing room is pacing up and down.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. Huge, huge appeal for LBW. Turned down. Mustafizur bowls a lovely indipper, gets it too full, Jadeja misses his flick and is hit on the pads. Everyone appeals but the umpire is calm. You know, sometimes I wonder, how great is team spirit. The man from cover comes running in and appeals vociferously. Wonder how would he see whether that was hitting the stumps or not. Anyways, just 2 runs and a wicket from the over, Mustafizur's figures read 7-0-28-1.

Mustafizur Rahman to Ravindra Jadeja. The batsman has defended it by getting right behind the line of the delivery.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. Full and outside off, Jadhav walks down the track and has a wild swing. Gets a leading edge which flies over cover. A run taken.

Ravindra Jadeja walks in at number 7, replacing Dhoni.

Mustafizur Rahman to MS Dhoni. OUT! Edged and taken! The Fizz removes the Finisher! Massive moment in the game. Well, with Jadhav struggling with his hamstring, Dhoni was cramped with regards to taking singles. Perhaps he thought he had to play the big shots now. Mustafizur lands this on a length outside off and gets it to move away a touch. Normally, Dhoni would just push it through the covers and get across to the other end. But here, with that pressure building on him mentally, he plays it very loosely, away from his body. Ends up getting a thick outside edge to the keeper. Bangladesh appeal but Dhoni does not even wait for the umpire's signal. 63 more needed from 83 balls.

Nazmul Islam to MS Dhoni. Goes back and bunts it towards long on for a run.

Nazmul Islam to MS Dhoni. Full on middle, Dhoni comes down the track a touch and works it towards short mid-wicket.

Nazmul Islam to Kedar Jadhav. Full and outside off, Jadhav smothers it.

A bit of a break. That stretching of the hamstring might just be a bit more serious than it actually looked. The Indian physio is out in the middle and helping Kedar with his stretching. For a moment, KJ looked alright but then sat down. The physio is strapping his right thigh for now. OKAY. He is ready now. What will we see? Big hits? No quick singles?

Mustafizur Rahman to Kedar Jadhav. Quick single. Tight single. Very full, on middle, Jadhav backs away slightly and drives it towards mid off. Takes the fielder on, who rushes across to his right from mid off. Has a shy at the non-striker's end but it's wide, because he is off balance. Jadhav makes it in but he is stretching his hamstring. 69 more needed from 90 balls.

Mustafizur Rahman to MS Dhoni. Outside off, punched through the covers for a single.

Mustafizur Rahman to MS Dhoni. Stump-to-stump line, MS gets across and pushes it but straight to mid on.

Mustafizur Rahman to MS Dhoni. Full on middle, flicked straight to short mid-wicket.

Another change. Mustafizur Rahman is back. Wicketless so far, in 5 overs.

Nazmul Islam to MS Dhoni. Short and outside off, Dhoni punches it towards cover who dives and fumbles, conceding a run.

Nazmul Islam to Kedar Jadhav. Tucks this through square leg, Dhoni wants the second, but his partner is not too keen. A run is what they settle for.

Nazmul Islam to Kedar Jadhav. Outside off, punched towards mid off.

Nazmul Islam to MS Dhoni. The batsman charges down the wicket. The batsmen have run through for a single. 150 up for India. 73 more needed from 99 balls.

Mahmudullah to MS Dhoni. On middle and leg, helped through square leg, but straight to the fielder.

Mahmudullah to Kedar Jadhav. The batsman has defended it by getting right behind the line of the delivery.

Mahmudullah to Kedar Jadhav. Full and outside off, slowly tossed up, watchfully defended.

Mahmudullah to Kedar Jadhav. Outside off, punched back to the bowler.

Kedar Jadhav walks in now, at number 6, replacing Karthik. But the players have been asked to take a DRINKS BREAK. Well, Bangladesh needed that breakthrough, didn't they? It seemed like the two wicket-keepers or okay, DK is not an official wicket-keeper, India were cantering. The Men In Green will feel that if they can keep Dhoni stranded at one end, the others can be dismissed.

Mahmudullah to Dinesh Karthik. OUT! LBW! Is Mahmudullah the man with the golden arm for Bangladesh? What a ball. Very full. Karthik walks forward and looks to flick the ball. But he misses the line totally and is struck on the boots. Looks plumb. Marais Erasmus agrees and raises his finger. Karthik does not review either, so must have missed the inside edge too. India still on top but Bangladesh will feel a bit better. The 54-run stand is broken. 86 needed, 116 balls left, 6 wickets in hand.

Mahmudullah to MS Dhoni. Too easy. MS punches it through the covers for a single.

Mahmudullah to MS Dhoni. Comes down the track and blocks it out.

DRINKS ARE ONTO THE FIELD NOW. So far, so good in terms of the match. Not totally one-sided, at least till now. India still have Rohit in the middle but at least Bangladesh have got into the Indian middle order with the game still alive. As the great Geoffrey Boycott says - always look at the score by adding a couple of wickets. Hmmm... say 79/2 becomes 100/5 - different ball game then.

Rubel Hossain to Rohit Sharma. MIX-UP, RUN OUT CHANCE, FUMBLE, SAFE!!! Everything happening out there. Pressure getting to both - batsmen and fielder. Nervy moment for both sides. Rohit drives it down the ground and initially calls for a single. Liton Das comes charging in from mid off and then suddenly, Mr.Sharma sends Karthik back. However, he continues to run further. There is a run out on offer but Das fumbles, thereby enabling DK to come back. Mid on then gets across and has a shy, seeing Rohit halfway down the track.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Dinesh Karthik. Needless from Bangladesh. DK walks down the track and plays it behind point. The fielder dives but fails to stop the ball. Then another fielder comes in from third man and has a shy at the striker's end. Hits the bull's eye but what also does is, cause a ricochet which deflects the ball towards fine leg. Now the batsmen take the overthrow. Two runs in total.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Dinesh Karthik. Full and outside off, pushed straight to cover.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Dinesh Karthik. Well bowled! Little bit of shape there as well. Mortaza lands this on a length outside off, bowls it a touch wide as well, Karthik initially comes forward to play that but at the last moment, takes the bat away. Good thing he did that, because the ball shaped away like a banana.

Mashrafe Mortaza to Ambati Rayudu. OUT! Caught behind! Terrific delivery by Mortaza. He has dismissed Rayudu cheaply.

Two down now, India. 177 runs needed in 255 balls. Game on. The Indian middle order has not impressed much of late. Add to it the pressure of the final and it becomes an even bigger task.

Later on, the replays confirm the same.

The slip moves out. A fielder for the drive now. Square leg is inside the ring.

Mehidy Hasan to Shikhar Dhawan. Once again the length is on the shorter side. It's wide outside off and Dhawan goes back to force it down towards long off. A fielder is already in the deep and hence only a run results.
