Bangladesh struggled to build partnerships, and wickets fell at regular intervals, leaving the hosts reeling.
Chasing 128 runs for victory, India wasted no time asserting their dominance. Indian batsmen came out aggressively, taking advantage of the powerplay. With a flurry of boundaries from Sanju Samson, India quickly settled into their innings, making the chase look effortless. With the help of collective batting efforts, India reached the total in just 11.5 overs for the loss of three wickets.
