3 wickets gone to score 10 runs. The match was over there! Bangladesh, however, eventually managed to score 120 runs in reply to India's 182 runs. Nazmul Hossain Shantar's team lost in the preparation phase of the World Cup by a huge margin of 62 runs.

Sanju Samson and Rohit Sharma could not give India a good start after winning the toss. India then went into the power play courtesy of Rishabh Pant. Pant returned to the Indian team after a long time and scored 53 runs in 32 balls. After that he retired voluntarily. Shivam Dube got a chance to show his IPL form for India, but he was dismissed for 14 off 16 balls.

Suryakumar played some confident shots in his innings of 31 runs off 18 balls. Hardik Pandya then pounced on the bowlers towards the end of the innings. His cameo of 40 runs gave India a capital of 180.

Bangladesh tried a lot of bowlers in this innings and also experimented a lot. Sheikh Mehdi bowled very well, scored 22 runs in 4 overs and got one wicket. Shariful was not bad either. He started well. However, his injury at the end can make Bangladesh think again. Shakib's bowling can also give Bangladesh a bad feeling. He gave 47 runs in 4 overs.

However, that pessimism cannot in any way overshadow the pessimism about the team's batting. Bangladesh went into the match with the lack of form of the top order in mind. Even today it returns to haunt the team like the ghost of Sindabad. Initially, Soumya Sarkar fell victim to Arshdeep Singh, followed by Liton Das. A little later, when Nazmul Hossain Shanto was caught off Mohammad Siraj, the team's runs totaled 10.

Tawhid Hriday made 13 off 14 balls and Tanjid Tamim made 17 off 18 balls when there was concern about whether the team's runs would reach three figures either side of an over. However, Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah Riyad eliminated that in a pair of 70 runs off 59 balls. After playing an innings of 40 runs from 28 balls, Mahmudullah got up to give others a chance. After that Shakib came back playing an innings of 28 runs off 35 balls. In the end, Rishad Hossain and Zaker Ali also returned to single figures, Bangladesh stopped at 120 runs and lost 9 wickets.
