India (231/4) defeat Bangladesh (228) by 6 wickets to make a triumphant start to their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 campaign

Relax. We will win this one atleast 10-15 overs to go. It's Bangladesh after all.

With other test nations, yes, it will be concerning.
I'm not worried about this one, but overconfidence does have a habit of overriding wisdom. I hope the Indian players keep their heads between their shoulders for the upcoming games.
 
Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali, while speaking on a show on a local channel:

“Babar Azam has completed his half-century in 81 balls and has managed 64 balls in 90 balls.”

"Was he only playing for his milestone. Shouldn’t he played for his country. Country is first or Babar Azam is first, will someone ask him?"

"You have hit only five boundaries in his knock. Salman Ali Agha showed more intent than Babar Azam."

"On social media fans call me traitor for criticising Babar Azam."
 
bangladeshi batters have to look to score atleast 5 runs in every over..they are set now.. get around 180 by 44th over and then kick on..
 
how can bangladeshi batters not play axar well..all they face in doemstic are left arm slow bowlers..they seem to get in a bind against axar
 
Indian bowlers bowl a very good line and length on most occasions. Their discipline has won them majority of games.
Since 2011 India has been in auto-pilot in ICC ODI tournaments not withstanding their failure in some crucial winnable games.

All captains must watch and learn how not to the art of letting winnable match drift towards losing from our Super star Rohit sharma.
Team selection,tactics are dirt poor.
 
India has got enough batting power.. this should not be a difficult chase for them... I don't think Bangla boys will cross 220
 
Come on Jaddu bhai, pick a couple.
He is a container. Not a wicket taker.

Next match, India should drop both Shami and Harshit. Play Arsh and Hardik as pacers. Include either Sundar or Varun.

Outside of Kuldeep, all other bowlers are just containing bowlers. Shami used to be good. Harshit is lucky to be in the squad.
 
Looks like India's strategy of going with a spin heavy attack has backfired badly. They should change tack before the next game.
Jaker and Towhid swatting the Indian spinners with ease here.
 
This series will most likely the end of one of worst captain of india , guy single Handley destroyed our chances of winning matches by his stupid Captaincy and the idiot who broke bumrah in 4th test by bowling him relentlessly.
I pray that rohit , kohli, KL and jadeja to thrown out or just retire.
After throwing out useless idiots like above 4 ,our T20 team look really good and espect 50 overs team too will look good.
 
Good fight back by these two....BD heading towards a total that will take some doing....our guys have dropped in intensity....meanwhile BD crowd and supporters chanting big time....
 
So where are those who were saying it doesn't matter the number of catches we drop in this game.

Hope team management isn't thinking like those ignorants.
