India and Bangladesh played out what could be the most thrilling contest of the World T20 so far as the home side won the match by 1 run. Bangladesh restricted the Indian batsmen to just 146 on a difficult Chinnaswamy pitch as almost all Indian batsmen struggled to score.
In reply, Bangladesh got off to a good start and seemed well on their way to their maiden T20I win against India. However, some late drama gave India one of the most enthralling finishes to a cricket game as Bangladesh lost three wickets in the last three balls to help the hosts inch closer to the semi-final spots.
