Kuldeep strikes; Bangladesh 5 down

September 28, 2018 19:11

Bangladesh 152-5 (33 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Kuldeep comes back from the other end as he takes over from Jadhav, who bowled a superb first spell of two for 22 in five overs. He made the breakthrough with the wicket of Hasan, before India struck regularly to pick up four quick wickets to bring themselves back into the contest.

Kuldeep does well to bowl five dot balls in a row to Mahmudullah before the right-hander pulls the last ball which is short but substitute Rahul does well to stop inside the ropes at midwicket and keep it down to two.

India making a change as Bhuvneshwar comes back into the attack, not letting the batsmen settle down against the spinners.

Again, Bangladesh struggle to rotate the strike as Das picks up one from the third ball to thirdman before Mahmudullah is unable to get a run from the last three balls.

The pressure pays off again for India. Mahmudullah chances his arm trying to heave Kuldeep over the leg side but ends up getting caught at deep midwicket by Bumrah, who does well to judge the catch nicely.

Another wicket given away cheaply as Mahmudullah walks back for four with Bangladesh slipping to 151 for five in the 33rd over, with India's bowlers chipping away at the wickets at regular intervals.

Kuldeep beats Soumya Sarkar with one that goes away the googly as the left-hander plays and misses.

He gets the last ball to turn sharply as Sarkar plays on the backfoot and hit on the pads but the confident shout for leg before wicket is turned down.
