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

[Van_Sri]

Remember everyone - 261 their highest score on this ground and 222 their highest score vs India . Bangla Tigers too hot for India

 

[gani999]

Looks like BD will cross 250 now. Well played and a terrific recovery against Brainfade Sharma and his band of jolly follies.

 

[sweep_shot]

Towhid should retire hurt maybe. BD need quick runners now.

 

[MP2011]

Rishad gone

 

[sweep_shot]

Rishad is out.

214/7.

 

[Devadwal]

With this bowling even 400 is not safe when india bats first

 

[Human786]

nice list :
Fewest balls taken to pick 200 ODI wickets -
𝟓𝟏𝟐𝟔 - 𝐌𝐨𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐝 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐢 , 5240 - Mitchell Starc , 5451 - Saqlain Mushtaq , 5640 - Brett Lee , 5783 - Trent Boult , 5883 - Waqar Younis

 

[Van_Sri]

35/5 to a their highest total vs India at this ground amazing

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is like 50th time ROhit let the game drift after having the opposition down and out.

 

[Human786]

214/7 - 24 balls left .... sad stuff from IND

 

[sweep_shot]

BD slowed down. Need to finish well. Need 250 minimum.

214/7 (46 overs).

 

[MP2011]

Good 46th over, just 2 off it and a wicket.

 

[OldWarHorse]

This is going to be tricky. Can't see Rohit surfing initial spell from Tanzim

 

[Human786]

215/8

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

East or West – both are too heavy for India.

hmmm...er...India ended the 'east'....

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shami boy gets some wickets even at his worst fitness.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD are collapsing.

Sakib is out.

215/8.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Agree or not, but only Bangladesh could put up this kind of fight—Pakistan couldn't have.

 

[Van_Sri]

Want Shami to take 5 wickets

 

[The Bald Eagle]

The HIGHEST ODI partnership vs India for the sixth wicket or lower

Towhid Hridoy and Jaker Ali

 

[Bhaijaan]

Shami bhai is forever

4 wickets

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

But terrific fightback by the BD boyz...chase aint gonna be easy....

 

[OldWarHorse]

Agree or not, but only Bangladesh could put up this kind of fight—Pakistan couldn't have.

Brother India under Rohit can bring South Sudan back into a match.

 

[Van_Sri]

Exhausted Hridoy playing test match

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

cramps?

 

[Human786]

This is going to be tricky. Can't see Rohit surfing initial spell from Tanzim

& then come VK who should have retired from int cricket 2 years back ... Hridoy seems in poor shape - not that hot out there .

 

[Devadwal]

Want Shami to take 5 wickets

I'm not ,only 4 wickets and man of the match. So i can win something

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Riz Cramps??

 

[sweep_shot]

250 seems impossible now. Towhid has cramp. Others are tail-enders.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

& then come VK who should have retired from int cricket 2 years back ... Hridoy seems in poor shape - not that hot out there .

dude deserves a 100..

 

[Justcrazy]

Just 20 balls left

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Why is Hridoy still playing with severe cramps?
Lol, is he just looking for a hundred and wasting balls

 

[Van_Sri]

Hope BD makes 230

 

[Justcrazy]

BD would love some lusty blows here.

 

[Human786]

221/8 - 3 left

 

[Justcrazy]

Hridoy 96 NO now

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Wow, terrific shot....and pathetic bowoing by mo shami

 

[sweep_shot]

Towhid is on 95*.

 

[Van_Sri]

want Hridoy to hit a century and Shami to take his wicket

 

[Devadwal]

Pace-off is working on this pitch, so far 0 boundary and 2 wickets from pace-off.

Mustafizur will be very effective here

 

[Justcrazy]

Bd should look to get run a ball in next two overs , instead of being bowled out

 

[Devadwal]

What? Kuldeep is bowling 48th over ? Are they experimenting too much in main events?

 

[Van_Sri]

Bangladesh registered today 223/8 their highest total in Dubai vs India , Well Played Mangroove Tigers

 

[Justcrazy]

Most team make this mistake and try to go too hard and get bowled out. Its better to add some runs by getting run a ball.

 

[Justcrazy]

What? Kuldeep is bowling 48th over ? Are they experimenting too much in main events?

He has bowled well , not bowled loose balls.

 

[sweep_shot]

Towhid is on 98*.

 

[Hikaru]

Hridoy playing for a hundred.

 

[Champ_Pal]

4 spinners ?? Lol

Nope.

Arshdeep and Hardik are pacers.
Varun, Kuldeep, Axar, Jaddu are spinners.

Matches are played in Asian conditions. Pacers will be pretty useless unless they are very skilled with variations.

 

[Devadwal]

He is playing for hundred .very selfish approch

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

What a single!....dude deserves 100

 

[Van_Sri]

Shami vs Hridoy 49th Over

 

[sweep_shot]

Just 1 run away from his maiden century.

 

[Devadwal]

Statpadding of highest order .

 

[Justcrazy]

Hridoy one short of 100

 

[Van_Sri]

Congratulations Hridoy

 

[sweep_shot]

Towhid gets his maiden ODI century. Well played.

 

[Justcrazy]

11 balls to go .

 

[Champ_Pal]

Well deserved 100.

 

[Devadwal]

Well deserved 100.

Totally selfish knock .

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Wonderful 100, bit of luck earlier on..but he made most of it, good shots

 

[Shafikapeo]

Bd should look to get run a ball in next two overs , instead of being bowled out

Badapaw has been pathetic today, India is not going to win this championship with this sort of bowling and fielding, very casual from India's end.

 

[Devadwal]

Go and Retired .

 

[Human786]

228/9 ... poor show by IND

 

[MP2011]

5-for for Shami

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shami ji has 5 wickets what do you know.

 

[sweep_shot]

5-fer for Shami.

Well bowled.

 

[Justcrazy]

Bd making cardinal mistake , not playing full 50 overs here.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Fifer for Shami

 

[Devadwal]

Bangladesh wested last 2 over Just because selfish century .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bd making cardinal mistake , not playing full 50 overs here.

They must be happy they played 49 overs given the situation they were in. Rohit helped with the recovery all the way

 

[Justcrazy]

8 balls to go , can they get 8 singles ?

 

[Hikaru]

Hridoy's selfishness working for India.

 

[sweep_shot]

8 balls to go , can they get 8 singles ?

Unlikely. Towhid is experiencing cramps.

They have to go for boundaries.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Shami ji has 5 wickets what do you know.

BD are plain trash.

Shami is not at his best and struggling for form. But BD making this comeback memorable.

 

[Justcrazy]

Shami is a gun OD bowler. He along with bumrah would be lethal pair.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Who is Shami's hair doctor? He did a great job!

 

[Van_Sri]

Shami 5 wickets amazing over

 

[Justcrazy]

BD are plain trash.

Shami is not at his best and struggling for form. But BD making this comeback memorable.

Shami is better than zaheer khan in OD

 

[OldWarHorse]

Hridoy's selfishness working for India.

The guy is almost on a disability quota at this point. Can't do much in that state

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Bangladesh wested last 2 over Just because selfish century .

Rizwan-esque innings.
