Bangladesh won India for the first time in T20I - What went wrong for India?

India and Bangladesh played the maiden game of the tour. Major players including Virat Kohli was given rest in the game. Bangladesh cricket was in chaos due to the strike. The match was played at Feroz Shah Kotla stadium. Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bowl first.

Everything went okay for Team India till then but soon things started getting hard as the Bangladeshi bowlers started putting pressure on the batsmen. Except for Dhawan, other players couldn't stand for a long time. Players like Shreyas Iyer, Kurnal Pandya and Washington Sundar gave a good strike and got India to a total of 148 for 6 wicket loss.

When Bangladesh began to strike, the bowlers were okay but the fielding was a bit on the sloppy side with Kurnal Pandya missing a catch between the fingers and letting it go for a boundary. Mushfiqur Rahim went on to become the Man of the Match.

On field decisions were also not on point with missing Rahim's LBW review and eventually missing his wicket again. Bangladesh scored 154 for the loss of 3 wickets and won the match by 7 wickets with 3 balls left.

The next match will be played in Rajkot on Thursday, Nov 7 at 7 pm.
