India vs Bangladesh Highlights, Asia Cup 2023: Bangladesh defeat India by 6 runs, end campaign with win

23:24 (IST)

That brings us to the end of our coverage of the final Super Four match of the 2023 Asia Cup. Pakistan and Bangladesh have bowed out of the tournament.

It boils down to the final now, with India and Sri Lanka locking horns in yet another summit clash. ‘Hosts’ Sri Lanka will be setting their sights on back-to-back titles to go level with Indian in terms of trophy count. Despite the defeat, Team India remain favourites for an eighth title.

For now this is Amit signing off, wishing you all a happy weekend ahead. See you all on Sunday!

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

A happy end to what was otherwise a disappointing campaign for Bangladesh in the 16th Asia Cup, where their hopes of reaching the final were dashed following back-to-back Super Four defeats against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. India, meanwhile, have got a wake-up call of sorts ahead of the crucial final and now have an idea about batting under lights in Colombo. Today’s match was also an important assessment of how some of the reserve players in the squad are shaping up ahead of the World Cup, and by the looks of it, not many impressed. Especially Suryakumar Yadav, whose chances of getting a middle-overs slot remain dim after his 34-ball 26.

Rohit Sharma and Co will hope to learn from their mistakes today and come out stronger in the final on Sunday.

After 49.5 overs,India 259/10 ( Prasidh Krishna 0 , )

OUT! That’s it! Bangladesh win by 6 runs and beat India at the Asia Cup after more than a decade — since 2012 to be precise!

Shami gets an inside edge towards short fine leg, and is run out while charging back for a second!

FOUR! Is there a twist in store? Shami heaves the ball over the midwicket region after Tanzim starts off the final over with three consecutive dots. India 259/9; need 8 off 2!

23:02 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 49 overs,India 254/9 ( Mohammad Shami 1 , Prasidh Krishna 0)

OUT! That might just be it as far as India's hopes are concerned! Like Gill earlier today, Axar holes out to the fielder at long on while attempting to smash the ball down the ground. While it was a change in line that foxed Gill earlier, this time it's a cutter from 'Fizz' that brings about his downfall. Prasidh Krishna joins Shami at the crease with Bangladesh one wicket away from victory! Outstanding over from Mustafizur, conceding just five runs for two crucial wickets!

Axar c Tanzid b Mustafizur 42(34)

22:57 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

OUT! Fizz strikes at the start of what could be a match-defining penultimate over! Thakur looks to flick a low full toss through the square leg region, only for Miraz to pull off a fine catch diving to his left at square leg. Bangladesh two wickets away from victory. From India's perspective though, Axar's presence will be reassuring. IND 249/8

Thakur c Miraz b Mustafizur 11(13)

22:51 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 48 overs,India 249/7 ( Axar Patel 38 , Shardul Thakur 11)

Mustafizur returns for the business end of the game, and concedes seven in his seventh over. Both Axar and Thakur are looking for the big hits but are unable to get the boundaries. Thakur pulls the ball towards wide long on in the final delivery, only for Miraz to save a couple of runs for the Tigers with an agile slide. Mahedi continues from the other end and continues to build pressure on the Men in Blue, conceding a single off each of the first four deliveries. Axar though, greatly shortens the equation for the Men in Blue with a four and a six off the last two deliveries, leaving India 17 to win off 12.

22:50 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

SIX! And just like that, Axar brings India back in the contest! Mahedi bowls this into the slot, and Axar presents the straight face of the bat to loft this over long on, comfortably clearing the long on fielder. IND 249/7; need 17 off 12

22:50 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

FOUR! A much-needed boundary for the Indians, with Axar drilling the ball over the bowler's head. The ball rolls away to the straight boundary, beating the fielder running to his right from long on. IND 243/7; need 23 off 13

22:41 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 46 overs,India 228/7 ( Axar Patel 23 , Shardul Thakur 5)

Mahedi vs Axar in the 46th over in what a crucial match-up — the off-spinner against set left-hander. Thakur goes for a wild heave in the third delivery and gets a thick top-edge, with the ball landing between three fielders at backward square leg. Axar and Thakur are content rotating the strike through singles in this over, with six runs coming off it. The Men in Blue need 38 off 24.

22:34 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 45 overs,India 222/7 ( Axar Patel 21 , Shardul Thakur 2)

FOUR! Muscled towards the cow corner fence off a full toss from Nasum, with the fielder running to his left from long on unable to get to the ball in time. 12 off Nasum's final over as the left-arm spinner signs off wicketless for 50 runs. He nearly had a wicket in the over though, with Axar missing the ball completely after giving the ball a charge, only for keeper Litton to miss out on a stumping opportunity thanks to a fumble. India need 44 off 30 with three wickets in hand.

22:31 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

SIX! Axar gets on the backfoot and pulls a half-tracker from Nasum over deep midwicket! The sound off the bat suggested it had come off the meat of the bat, and there was little a fielder could have done in this situation even if placed at the edge of the boundary rope. IND 217/7

22:29 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 44 overs,India 210/7 ( Axar Patel 11 , Shardul Thakur 1)

Bangladesh certainly will be smelling victory after Mahedi’s dismissal of Gill. Both Axar and Thakur can bat though, and could cause the Tigers a problem or two in the business end of the chase. Axar, especially, has been around for a while now, and will look to assume charge from here.

22:26 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

OUT! Gill perishes while attempting a shot too many! Mahedi fires this full and outside off, and Gill has to stretch his arms for the slog. Doesn't quite time it, and Towhid Hridoy does the rest in front of the long off boundary, completing a fine running catch. Huge blow for India, who would have been praying for Gill to finish the job. IND 209/7

Gill c Hridoy b Mahedi 121(134)

22:23 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

SIX! That's the biggest hit of the evening so far! Gill gets down on one knee and slog-sweeps the ball towards deep midwicket, where the ball lands several rows behind the fence. IND 209/7
 

22:18 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 42 overs,India 198/6 ( Shubman Gill 113 , Axar Patel 8)

Shakib brings himself back at the start of the final powerplay, and bowls out his quota, signing off with figures of 1/43. Mahedi returns from the other end. Concedes three in his sixth over including two wides. India need another 68 off 48.

22:11 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 40 overs,India 188/6 ( Shubman Gill 110 , Axar Patel 5)

FOUR! FOUR! Back-to-back fours for Gill right after bringing up the three-figure mark. India will need boundaries at regular intervals in order to keep the asking rate under check, and Gill — who is fairly well set at the moment — is the man for the job. Expensive over from Tanzim for a change with 12 coming off it. Five off the following over by Mustafizur including a wide, with India reaching 188/6 at the end of the second powerplay.

They need another 78 to win off 60 with four wickets in hand.

22:07 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

CENTURY TO SHUBMAN GILL — his fifth in one-dayers and fourth in the format this year alone! Brings up the milestone with a double off Tanzim's bowling in the 39th over after guiding the ball through the midwicket region. Has been a patient knock so far from him, taking 117 deliveries to get to the three-figure mark. Gill knows the team's hopes rest on his shoulders, and he has to stick till the very end.

22:02 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 38 overs,India 171/6 ( Shubman Gill 98 , Axar Patel 1)

Nasum replaces Shakib in the attack, with the latter looking to preserve his final over for later. Change from both ends with Mustafizur replacing Mehidy, the move resulting in India losing their sixth wicket with Jadeja getting castled for 7. Bangladesh have managed to maintain a stranglehold on the Men in Blue despite Gill’s resistance.

21:55 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

BOWLED! Jadeja departs without making much of an impact and Mustafizur finally has a wicket to his name! Jadeja swings his bat wildly without getting willow to leather, and ends up hearing the death rattle. IND 170/6

Jadeja b Mustafizur 7(15)

21:51 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 36 overs,India 163/5 ( Shubman Gill 93 , Ravindra Jadeja 5)

SIX! Second maximum for Gill in Miraz’s fifth over, and once again the opener skips down the track and launches the ball straight down the ground, sending it further behind the long on boundary rope. 14 off the over, and India could get a few more of these to revive their chase! Shakib had conceded just three singles in the over before this one, and has one over left in his quota.

21:49 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

SIX! Gill decides he's had enough of the waiting game, and decides to charge down the track to launch Miraz into the orbit. And does so with a touch of authority, clearing the long on fence comfortably. IND 155/5

21:45 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 34 overs,India 146/5 ( Shubman Gill 78 , Ravindra Jadeja 3)

Ravindra Jadeja joins Gill at the centre after Shakib’s dismissal of Surya, and gets off the mark right away with a single. Miraz returns to the attack in the following over, with a single coming off each delivery of his fourth over barring the penultimate delivery. India need a couple of big overs to keep the rising required rate under check. More importantly, Shubman Gill has to stick around till the end. 

21:32 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

BOWLED! Shakib's insistence on bowling an extended spell pays off as Shakib gets rid of Surya! SKY decided to go for another sweep, but missed the ball completely on this occasion, resulting in the ball clipping the top of off. The Bangladesh skipper breaks the fifth-wicket stand that was starting to look worrisome for the Tigers. Drinks brought to the field at the end of the over. IND 139/5

Surya b Shakib 26(34)

21:28 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 32 overs,India 137/4 ( Shubman Gill 73 , Suryakumar Yadav 25)

FOUR! Two boundaries in as many overs for Surya! He goes for a late cut off a slightly short delivery from Shakib outside off. Places it wide of backward point, and the quick outfield does the rest. SKY gets a thick top-edge while attempting a sweep in the final delivery, with the ball landing in the square leg region. What’s more, a misjudgement by Mahedi in the deep results in SKY getting enough time to come back for a second. The ball began to change course in the last second, moving away from the fielder due to the spin imparted on it by Surya’s shot.

Nasum returns to the attack in the following over and Gill nearly perishes in the third delivery, nearly getting caught near cover while attempting an inside-out lofted drive. Four off the over, with the current partnership worth 43 at the end of the 32nd over.

21:21 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 30 overs,India 126/4 ( Shubman Gill 70 , Suryakumar Yadav 17)

Two runs added to the Indian total in each of Nasim and Shakib’s overs — byes in the latter’s case, with the Bangladesh captain collecting a second maiden. Mahedi Hasan, who had accounted for Rahul’s wicket, replaces Nasum in the 30th over and concedes nine, including a boundary to Surya in the second delivery. India need another 140 off 120.

21:19 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

FOUR! SKY sweeps, and sweeps hard behind square. The fielder running to his left from fine leg can't get to the ball in time. India will need quite a few more of these to keep the pressure in check. IND 122/4

21:11 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 27 overs,India 113/4 ( Shubman Gill 67 , Suryakumar Yadav 9)

Three singles conceded by Mehidy in his third over. Shakib, meanwhile, appeals several times in his fifth over, including for a catch off his own bowling against SKY in the second delivery that umpires decide to refer upstairs. Replays confirm the ball had bounced off the pitch after a punch by SKY before nestling between Shakib’s palms. Couple of LBW shouts as well, but Bangladesh have no review left for them to contest the on-field umpire’s decision. Four off Shakib’s fifth over.

21:01 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 25 overs,India 106/4 ( Shubman Gill 64 , Suryakumar Yadav 5)

SIX! Gill decides to take on Bangladesh's star all-rounder head on, charging down the track and going for an inside-out loft down the ground, clearing the wide long off boundary in the process for his second maximum of the day. Shakib later burns Bangladesh's only remaining review after an unsuccesssful LBW appeal against SKY, with the Impact found to be outside off.

Eight off the over, with India going past the 100-mark at the halfway mark, needing another 160 to win off 150 balls with six wickets in hand.

20:58 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 24 overs,India 98/4 ( Shubman Gill 57 , Suryakumar Yadav 4)

Shakib continues to build pressure on the Indians with a maiden — the second of the innings so far. The dot-ball strategy works as Kishan ends up getting trapped LBW off Miraz’s bowling in the following over. Much like Rahul, Kishan too was starting to feel the heat and perished while attempting to shift gears. Suryakumar Yadav walks in next and gets off the mark in style.

20:55 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

FOUR! And now Suryakumar Yadav, playing his first game of the tournament, gets off the mark with a boundary, going for an expansive sweep, behind square. IND 98/4

20:54 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

OUT! Mehidy doesn't take long to make an impact, trapping Ishan Kishan leg-before with a ball that slides through and hits him in front of middle and leg. Kishan, who missed the ball completely while attempting a reverse sweep, goes for the review after the umpire raises his finger right away. Ends up burning the review with HawkEye showing three reds. IND 94/4

20:51 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 22 overs,India 94/3 ( Shubman Gill 57 , Ishan Kishan 5)

Tidy over from Nasum, with Gill and Kishan collecting a single each. One Mehidy replaces another in the following over, with Miraz being introduced into the attack. He concedes three singles at the start of his spell.

20:44 (IST)

After 20 overs,India 89/3 ( Shubman Gill 54 , Ishan Kishan 3)

Seven off Nasum’s fourth over, including a brace to Gill in the third delivery with the opener getting an extra run thanks to an overthrow. New batter Ishan Kishan too opens his account. Eight off Mahedi’s fourth over including a six to Gill off the last delivery that brings up his third half-century of the ongoing tournament and his ninth overall in ODis.

20:43 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

SIX! Shubman Gill decides to charge down the ground and launch the ball high into the night six. Hits the ball cleanly enough to clear the midwicket fence. Brings up his third half-century of the ongoing tournament and his ninth overall in ODIs in style, bringing up the milestone in 61 deliveries. IND 89/3

20:33 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 18 overs,India 74/3 ( Shubman Gill 42 , Ishan Kishan 0)

OUT! The Tigers were growing increasingly worried about the third-wicket stand, and Mahidy's timely strike brings them back into the game! An under-pressure Rahul was looking to accelerate, skipping down the track and looking to launch the ball over the midwicket region. Got no elevation in the shot however, an ended up firing it straight into  Shamim Hossain's hands. What's more, it's a wicket maiden for Mahedi!

20:25 (IST)

20:17 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 14 overs,India 65/2 ( Shubman Gill 36 , KL Rahul (W) 16)

Tanzim finally given a breather after a superb six-over opening spell, as Shakib decides to bring Mustafizur back into the attack. Appeal for caught-behind down the leg side at the start of FIzz’s third over, but the umpire signals a wide. Rahul collects a single off the third after an outside edge that carries the ball towards third man. Gill comes back for a second in the following delivery after tucking the ball towards fine leg. Rahul ends the over with a solid punch through extra cover for a boundary. Off-spinner Mahedi Hasan introduced in the following over, replacing Shakib. Starts off on a tidy note with just one coming off his first over. Drinks brought out to the field at the end of the over.

20:13 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

FOUR! Length ball outside off from Mustafizur, Gill stays on the backfoot and punches this through the extra cover region! Partnership now worth 47 already! IND 64/2

20:08 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 12 overs,India 54/2 ( Shubman Gill 28 , KL Rahul (W) 14)

Another heart-in-mouth moment for Gill in this over as he decides to slap a length ball by Tanzim outside off past the diving fielder at backward point. Could have been a third wicket of the innings for Tanzim, who has been persisted with by Bangladesh skipper Shakib. Four singles off the over. Gill brings up the fifty for the Men in Blue in the following over with a brace off Shakib, whipping a short-of-length ball through the midwicket region. FOUR! Fuller delivery from Shakib, and Gill drives this through the extra cover region to collect his fourth boundary.

20:01 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 10 overs,India 42/2 ( Shubman Gill 19 , KL Rahul (W) 11)

One left-arm spinner replaces another, with skipper Shakib introducing himself in place of Nasum after the latter concedes two boundaries in his second over. Gill decides to play a late cut in the fourth delivery, coming back for a third after the ball beats the leaping fielder at backward point and slows down on its way to the boundary rope. End of the first powerplay, with India reaching 42/2. Steady partnership so far between Rahul and Gill.

19:58 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 9 overs,India 38/2 ( Shubman Gill 16 , KL Rahul (W) 10)

Maiden for Tanzim, the first of the innings, with Rahul happy to defend his way through the over. Appeal for LBW against Rahul in the final delivery, but is turned down with Rahul appearing to have got an inside nick.

19:53 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 8 overs,India 38/2 ( Shubman Gill 16 , KL Rahul (W) 10)

FOUR! Two boundaries conceded by Nasum in three deliveries, with Rahul playing a shot quite similar to the one that got Gill a boundary earlier in the over. Another short delivery outside off from Nasum that's been punished. The left-arm spinner concedes two wides in the final delivery. 11 from the over.

19:51 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

FOUR! Short and wide from Nasum, Gill gets on top of the bounce and firmly cuts it behind point to collect his third boundary. IND 31/2

19:50 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 7 overs,India 27/2 ( Shubman Gill 11 , KL Rahul (W) 6)

Big appeal for LBW against Rahul by Tanzim in his fourth over, and skipper Shakib opts to review after the umpire turns it down. The ball hit Rahul above the knee roll on the back pad and HawkEye shows the ball to be going over the stumps. Review lost by the Tigers. Three runs conceded by Tanzim in his fourth over, including a wide.

19:42 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 6 overs,India 24/2 ( Shubman Gill 10 , KL Rahul (W) 5

Tidy first over from left-arm finger spinner Nasum Ahmed, who replaces Mustafizur Rahman in the attack. Just one off the over, with Rahul collecting a single in the third delivery. Has been quite the nervy start for the Indians so far and both Gill and Rahul will hope to see off the initial burst, especially Tanzim's spell, before shifting gears.

19:38 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 5 overs,India 23/2 ( Shubman Gill 10 , KL Rahul (W) 4)

Superb over from Tanzim. Might have had three wickets in three overs already. Completely squares Gill up with an outswinger that pitches along good length and nearly kisses the outside edge. Gill has no option but to tread cautiously in the remainder of the over with the debutant already making quite the impression in international cricket. Just one off the over, coming off a wide in the second delivery.

19:35 (IST)

India vs Bangladesh LIVE

After 4 overs,India 22/2 ( Shubman Gill 10 , KL Rahul (W) 4)

FOUR! Slightly short from Mustafizur and wide of off, Rahul pounces on the opportunity to cut the ball firmly behind point, guiding it towards the unguarded boundary. The keeper-batter gets off the mark in style.
