India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I: Match Results| Scorecard| Award Winners| Stats

India vs Bangladesh: India won the first T20I of the three against Bangladesh by 7 wickets.

After winning the toss, India’s skipper, Suryakumar Yadav, chose to bowl first. The first breakthrough for India came early in the match as Litton Das got out in the first over of the match, and then Arshdeep Singh got his second wicket during the second over of the spell. Mayank Yadav, who was making his debut in the T20Is, delivered a maiden first over and took three wickets later in the match in his 4-over spell. Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hussain Shanto held his ground for a brief while, but Washington Sundar picked up his wicket with a score of 27. Mehidy Hasan Miraz was the only batter who kept going from his end and scored 35 runs for his team. Bangladesh was bowled out for 127 runs in 19.5 overs.

Chasing the target of 128, India’s start was explosive as Abhishek Sharma was scoring runs quickly, but a miscommunication between Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma led to the fall of the first wicket. Sanu Samson and skipper Suryakumar Yadav had a brief partnership. Suryakumar Yadav got out after scoring a quick 29 runs inning and took his team closer to the target. However, former India’s T20I captain Hardik Pandya’s innings stole the show; the right-handed batter scored 39 runs in just 16 balls to end the match in 11.5 overs, winning it by 7 wickets.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I: Captains’ Corner

We just tried to back our skills and what we decided in the team meeting, we just walked the talk. The way the guys showed their character on the field, first time playing on a new ground, and the way we batted, showed our character. [On the debutants] Very excited and looking forward to seeing them in the next games. It’s a good headache to have when you are on the field when you have extra bowling options. You always learn something new playing every game. There will be a few areas to improve, we’ll sit down and talk about it before the next game.”

Suryakumar Yadav(India Captain) said post-match

We didn’t start well. In T20s, the first six overs are very important but we didn’t start well. The plan was to play positive cricket and play with intent from the first ball but we had to manage some overs. We need a better plan for the next matches. If we had some wickets in hand, we could have scored 10-15 runs more. Bowling-wise, we didn’t have enough runs on the board. Very hard for the bowlers on a pitch like this. We needed more runs. But I think Rishad bowled well and Fizz as well.”
