As expected, India dominated the match. Bangladesh won the toss and batted first. Indian pacers took all 10 wickets with Ishant Sharma claiming his 10th five-wicket haul.
Then, Cheteshwar Puajara and Kohli helped India overtake Bangladesh's total after the early wickets of openers Mayank Agarwal and Rohit Sharma.
