Presentation

MS Dhoni, Man of the Match "Not really [if he likes to bat under pressure]. Given an option, I wouldn't. Of course we had the second Powerplay, so we knew we were never behind the rate, we just needed to keep wickets in hand. If we want to be No. 1, we need to do better with with ball and in the field. Today's best bowler was Yuvraj, and that's not really a good sign."

Shakib Al Hasan "We are getting runs consistently, that's a plus for us. When we got early wickets, we thought we had a chance, but they got a good partnership, all credit to them."

So heartbreak for Bangladesh, jailbreak for India. Dhoni and Kohli help India escape an embarrassing defeat, Bangladesh will wonder they let it slip away after they had India on the mat. It's perhaps in the initial stages of the Dhoni-Kohli partnership when they gave away singles too easily. Can't help but be reminded of this when Dhoni helped India escape in 2007.
