slower one, this! the batsman makes some room and looks to send the ball out of the park. It finds the outside edge of the No. 11, and second slip, Ajinkya Rahane, takes it easily to his left.
India vs Bangladesh, Warm-up at London, May 30 2017 - Ball by Ball Commentary
And that's that, then. India used just one over of spin as their pacers shared nine wickets between themselves. Bangladesh, who scored over 300 against Pakistan the other day, had a disastrous start chasing 325. They were 22 for 6 in no time and after that it was merely formalities for India's bowlers. Three each for Bhuvneshwar and Umesh. Plenty of options in the pace-bowling department for the defending champions, will be interesting to see their XI in their opener.
Shakib: Everything (what went wrong?). The bowling was okay. Day after we have a big game coming up.
Kohli: Both games we got what we wanted. Batsmen got runs, bowlers were outstanding as well. When the cloud cover comes in, it's difficult for the batsmen. We back Hardik and Kedar to do the job for us down the order. Dinesh is an outstanding player, we just wanted to give him a longer run. We have ticked all the boxes in these games.
That is all we have for you from this match. From Sreshth, Varun, and Deva, it's goodbye.
