Rishad Hossain to Nitish Kumar Reddy
Oh, trying to be extra innovative there! Tossed up, outside off, turning away a tad, Nitish Kumar Reddy goes for a switch hit but gloves it to the slip on a bounce.

Rishad Hossain to Sanju Samson
FOUR! How good is that shot from Samson? He spoils an otherwise quiet over from Rishad. Lands it on the short of a good length, in front of the sticks does Rishad, Sanju Samson goes across the leg stump and creates room for himself before crisply cutting it in front of the square for a boundary at deep covers.

Mehidy Hasan to Nitish Kumar Reddy
Mehidy begins his spell now, over the stumps, too full, flat on leg, pushed to short mid-wicket by Nitish.

Mehidy Hasan to Nitish Kumar Reddy
'Two' is the call from Sanju and they will get it! Length on the pads, Nitish Kumar Reddy glances it off the hips to wide of short fine and gets a couple.

Mehidy Hasan to Nitish Kumar Reddy
Tossed up, full and on middle, Nitish Kumar Reddy walks down the track and drives it to long on for a single.

Mehidy Hasan to Sanju Samson
OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Mehidy Hasan strikes in his very first over and India are 3 down now. Mehidy Hasan bowls it full and flat and keeps the line of attack on the middle and leg stump. Sanju Samson clears his front foot to get some width and goes through the hoick across the line, but it is too close to the body and gets no power and timing at all. Goes off the inner half of the bat and straight towards Rishad Hossain at deep mid-wicket. Sanju Samson straightaway knew that he was in trouble after the point of contact. He departs for a decent 29 off 19!

Mehidy Hasan to Hardik Pandya
FOUR! Hardik gets off the mark in fine fashion there. Overpitched at the stumps, in the slot of Hardik, thumps it away with sheer power through deep mid-wicket for a boundary.

Rishad Hossain to Nitish Kumar Reddy

Rishad Hossain to Hardik Pandya
Tossed up, around off on a fuller length, Hardik Pandya brings out the broom and sweeps it to bisect the deep mid-wicket region but Towhid Hridoy there does an exceptional work. He runs to his right and intercepts the ball cleanly with a timely dive. Keeps it to just a single.
8.6

Rishad Hossain to Nitish Kumar Reddy
SIX! INTO THE CROWD! First six for Nitish! Tossed up, a genuine half-volley on offer, Nitish Kumar Reddy walks down, gets his bat under the ball, middles it and tonks it over the long on fence for a huge six. India need 34 off 66 now.

Mustafizur Rahman to Nitish Kumar Reddy
Oh, that skidded through like a bullet! Length ball, outside leg, Nitish Kumar Reddy is hurried by the pace to pull it away but gets it off the thigh pads instead. The ball rolls to the off side and they cross over.

Mustafizur Rahman to Hardik Pandya
FOUR! Gee, that's some shot! 100 up for India in double-quick time! Half-tracker on the top of the middle, Hardik Pandya arches back and taps the ball over backward point for a boundary. India motoring away comfortably.

Mustafizur Rahman to Hardik Pandya
FOUR! Pandya in a hurry to finish things off! Not an ideal length with no fielders in the deep. Full and just outside off, Hardik Pandya knows the fielders are inside the ring and just lofts it over covers and mid off for a boundary. India need 22 more to win in 60 balls.

Rishad Hossain to Nitish Kumar Reddy
Slow through the air, nice and full, outside off, Nitish Kumar Reddy pushes it to covers and steals a single. A wayward throw comes to the left of the keeper and Das couldn't collect it properly. The ball deflects off his gloves and rolls to the short fine but there is a backup to prevent any other run.

Rishad Hossain to Hardik Pandya
A bit of a rusty shot there by Hardik! Tossed up, around off, Hardik Pandya swings hard and slices it over point for a couple of runs.

Rishad Hossain to Hardik Pandya
Rishad hurries Hardik on this length ball, that skids through the surface. Hardik Pandya goes for a cut shot but gets a thick outside edge and Mehidy Hasan doesn't collect the ball properly. It lands just near him.

Rishad Hossain to Hardik Pandya
SIX! MURDERED! Rishad Hossain drags his length, keeps it on off, Hardik Pandya gets a good bounce on his waist height, rocks back by using the depth of the crease and slashes it hard and over covers with a short-arm jab for a six. That was hit with brute force by Hardik.

Rishad Hossain to Hardik Pandya
Doesn't get hold of it, does Hardik. Nice and full, on off, Hardik Pandya swings hard at it to go over the long on region but gets it off the inner half for a single. India just 12 runs away from the win.

Taskin Ahmed to Hardik Pandya
Taskin comes back into the attack, bowls a toe-crushing yorker on the pads, and bends Hardik Pandya who tries to flick it away. It goes off Pandya's boot to short fine for a leg bye.

Taskin Ahmed to Nitish Kumar Reddy

Taskin Ahmed to Hardik Pandya
FOUR! Easy peasy! Into the single figures now! Short and on off, Hardik Pandya arches back, ramps it over the keeper's head for a boundary. He doesn't even look at the ball as it dribbles away into the fence. Quite a raw expression from Pandya.

Taskin Ahmed to Hardik Pandya
FOUR! The ball's gone and so has the bat! Hard length outside off. Hardik cuts it hard and loses the grip of the bat. However, he connects it off the middle and the ball goes racing away to the deep backward point fence for a boundary while the bat flies to the square leg region. It's all happening here!

Taskin Ahmed to Hardik Pandya
SIX! HARDIK PANDYA FINISHES OFF IN STYLE FOR INDIA! Banged in short and on the top of the stumps, Hardik Pandya stands tall, backs away, swings hard, and slaps the pull rows behind the deep mid-wicket fence for a huge six. Hardik kills the game with 49 balls remaining and 7 wickets in hand.
