India 176-3 (20 ovs) vs B'desh | Scorecard

Hider comes under attack from Rohit. A short ball is easily despatches off the front foot over midwicket for a six before he digs out a yorker for one.

Two balls later Raina pulls a short ball over the leg side for the second six of the over.

It has turned out to be a horror over for Bangladesh as Hider bowls a full toss which Rohit smashes over the midwicket fence for the third six of the over.

Hider ends up giving away 21 runs in his fourth and final over as India continue their good showing in the last few overs, with 57 coming from the last four overs.

The floodgates have opened as Rohit continues his assault. Mustafizur bowls two full tosses in a row which the India captain hits for successive fours to raise the 100-run stand for the second wicket from 53 balls.

Hossain makes the breakthrough in the final over with the wicket of Raina. The left-hander, who smashed 47 from 30 balls, looks for a big hit on the leg side but fails to get enough distance and is caught on the midwicket fence.

The in-form Dinesh Karthik gets a promotion to No. 4.

Rohit has scored 29 runs from the last eight deliveries he has faced and if he continues the attacking approach, he stands in with a chance of getting to the hundred.

But Rubel bowls a good delivery which comes in and Rohit gets an inside edge on the pads for a single.

Karthik takes another single before Rohit is run out off the final over trying to steal another run.
