India 27-0 (3 ovs) vs B'desh 139-8 | Scorecard


Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan walk out to open the batting for India, who are chasing a modest 140 for victory at seven per over.

Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman opens the bowling. Rohit guides the first ball to thirdman for one before Dhawan smashes the next square on the off-side for a four to get off the mark in some style.

Dhawan clips the next ball through midwicket for two runs and then picks a single before Rohit also takes one.

Taskin Ahmed to bowl the second over. He beats Rohit with the first ball, full and moving away, as the India captain plays a loose poke away from his body.

The next ball is short as Rohit pulls it over midwicket for a four, falling just short of the fence.

Two balls later, another short ball is hit through the covers for the same result before he picks up a single.

Rubel Hossain comes into the attack, to bowl the third over. Rohit gets an edge from the first ball, beating the fielder at thirdman and goes away for a four as the right-hander races to 15 from eight balls.

Nine runs from the over as India race to 27 for no loss in three overs.
