Nidahas Trophy 2018 - India and Bangladesh in Sri Lanka T20I Tri-Series

As expected, not one BAN player got penalised. It's as if you need to be South African to be banned.
 
Pretty solid show from India so far! Have choked Bangladesh at crucial moments and have left Bangladesh needing a massive action block to post a respectable total here.
 
This innings from Sabbir is getting very dangerous for India! If he can carry BD to 170 odd here in the next 2 overs, India have some serious challenge. Bangladesh have enough spinners to cause trouble on this pitch.
 
chasing 167 is not going to be easy by any means ... BD have the ability to defend this

Even-stevens at this point. Maybe even 55-45 to BD
 
Ridiculous over from Thakur there for the 20th over! 18 runs is criminal! What could've been a 150 odd score is now 165+. I would say this is a decent to good total for BD on a wicket where the spinners are getting good help.
 
Rohit in a murderous mood!!! Against his favorite opposition!!! :D
 
Raina gone for a duck! Hasn't done well at all in the tournament, don't think he can be picked in the ODI team now unless he performs in the IPL.

Did you watch the last match where he scored a 47 and lifted the team to a winning total? He has played his pinch hitting role to good effect. When you play such a role, you are bound to have some failures here and there. Both in the South Africa T20's and in this tournament, Raina has contributed more than enough to be given an opportunity in the ODI side, especially lower down the order where his pinch hitting skills can be used to the fullest. And definitely he is a better option than the likes of Jadhav or Karthik in ODI's because when Dhoni returns back, we dont need a second keeper and Raina is a better fielder and bowler than Jadhav.

Really? We need a pinch hitter in the ODI team and he has comletely shown that he is fully capable to do that. Especially he is better than Jadhav, who is an utter shit fielder.
 
Sunil Gavaskar is doing Nagin Dance in commentary box.
 
I have a bad feeling about this. If it gets down the wire and Shankar and Sundar (who haven't batted at all this tournament) have to take India over the line, we could be toast. Hope Rohit along with Pandey and Karthik take India home.
 
What an over from the Fizz. Still got a little bit of the magic.
