Some incredible individual performances in India-Bangladesh ODIs rivalry

3. Shakib Al Hasan 49(31)

Shakib Al Hassan - The Bangladeshi All-rounder smashed Indian bowlers all over the park

4th match of Asia Cup, 2012 often remembered of Sachin's 100th 100. Even though, Sachin achieved the phenomenal record, India lost the match by 5 wickets in the 50th over.

Bangladesh won the toss and chose to field against India. Sachin's 114, Virat's 66 and Raina's 51 helped India to post a healthy 289-5. Though, the opener Nazimuddin fell cheaply for 5 in the 5th over, Tamim Iqbal and Jahurul Islam ensured there were no immediate casualties.

When Shakib came into bat, the asking rate was above 8 an over. He smashed 18 runs off the 37th over, bowled by Ashok Dinda, with a couple of big blows over midwicket and thick edge to third man. Aswin and Irfan Pathan also got the liking of Shakib.

With 66 needed off 50 deliveries, Aswin got rid of Shakib. But the damage was already done. Bangladesh were on top and Mushfiqur Rahim finished things in style with 46 of 25 balls.

4. Stuart Binny 6-4

Binny’s incredible 6-4 scripted India an improbable win

India toured Bangladesh in 2014 June for a 3 match one-day series. India sent a second-string team with Suresh Raina as captain. India won the first match of the series by 7 wickets.

In the second match, India bowled out for just 105. In reply, Bangladesh was cruising towards a famous win with 44-2 but Binny had other ideas. He started the incredible spell with a maiden over. In the 12th over, he got the Bangladeshi captain caught by Saha. Rahim tried to help the ball to fine leg but ends up gloving it and Saha took a comfortable catch.

Then started the Bangladesh batsmen's procession to the pavilion. He picked up the wickets of Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Mashrafe Mortaza, Nasir Hossain and Al-Amin Hossain for just 4 runs in 4.4 overs. It was a pure exhibition of swing bowling. Binny ended the match with figures of 6-4, which is the best figures for an Indian in ODIs. With Binni's brilliance with the ball, India scripted an improbable 47 runs win.

With India-Bangladesh ODI series around the corner, we can expect some individual brilliances. This time, India have announced a full-strength team which shows India is not taking Bangladesh lightly. Hope it would be an even contest between the two teams.
