B'desh 105-9 (30 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Ishant pitches it up as Mehidy defends the first two balls before he is beaten trying to drive away from his body.

Ishant strikes with the last ball of the over as Mehidy plays the flick shot but can't keep it on the ground and Cheteshwar Pujara at short midwicket takes a good sharp catch.

Mehidy, who came in as the substitute for Liton, walks back for eight as Bangladesh are reduced to 98 for eight after 28 overs.

Nayeem continues to play and miss. Shami bowls a wide outswinger which Nayeem looks to drive without any feet movement and is beaten.

The next ball is down the leg side as Nayeem misses the fine glance but it hits his pads and goes fine for four leg byes as Bangladesh finally cross the 100-run mark.

Nayeem then upper cuts Shami over the slips but the ball falls just short of the fielder at thirdman, who does well to put in the forward dive.

In the next over, Nayeem backs away before pushing Ishant through the covers for a couple. But Ishant ends Nayeem's stay at the crease with a full delivery which moves away enough to beat the bat and crash into the stumps.

Ishant completes his five-wicket haul, having taken 5-22 in 12 overs. This is Ishant's first five-wicket haul in India after a long wait of 12 years, having last claimed it in a Test in 2007.
