bowled out for 105, then Stuart Binny happened!

Bangladesh had beaten India prior to this, among some other notable sides, but the way they set up things for themselves in the second ODI, it seemed like the first time they would completely outplay one of the bigger fish in a manner so comprehensive that it would be nothing short of historic.

Taskin Ahmed swung the ball with immaculate control, sending a second string Indian batting led by Suresh Raina into a frenzy of helplessness as they were bowled out for just 105, and the second innings execution of the chase remained a mere formality in the humiliation of the visitors.

Then Stuart Binny happened.

Instead of playing out the tricky phase of the innings, Bangladesh tried the old ruse of knocking off the runs early in a low scoring encounter and in a little over two hours after bowling out India for one of their worst ODI performances, they were left ruing their own batting approach.

Four batsmen couldn't get off the mark, other four did not make it into double figures as Bangladesh had the mother of all brain fades, their swinging of bat at dramatically hooping deliveries sent the spectators and viewers across the country in great magnitudes of shock as they were bowled out for 58, Binny taking 6 wickets for 4 runs.
