B'desh 20-1 (3 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Tamim Iqbal and Soumya Sarkar are the two opening batsmen for Bangladesh, while left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat will bowl the first over for India.

Tamim gets off the mark with a single on the leg side and Sarkar picks a single two balls later.

Tamim then clips the fifth ball through square leg for three runs. He gets a top edge off the last ball but the ball falls right between three fielders at thirdman. Infact, the thirdman fielder initially went for the catch before deciding against it.

Off-spinner Washington Sundar to bowl the second over. He starts with a short ball which Sarkar smashes through the off-side for a four. But the bowler makes a good comeback, bowling five straight dot balls to the left-hander.

Sarkar looks in good touch as he lofts Unadkat over the square leg fence for a six and then tries another big hit down the ground but fails to make proper connection to get two runs.

However, Unadkat gets revenge with the wicket of Sarkar, who flicks it straight to the fielder at short fine leg to be dismissed for 14.

Liton Das walks in at No. 3 and he gets off the mark with one before Tamim keeps strike with a single from the last ball.
