All-rounder returns best ODI figures by an Indian as visitors clinch series against Bangladesh
Bangladesh plumbed new depths of embarrassment when it was dismissed for 58 while chasing 106 against India. After routing India for 105 in 26 overs, Bangladesh was cruising at 50 for three in the 13th over, when it sensationally collapsed. The hosts lost seven wickets for eight runs, and were all out for 58 in 17.4 overs, matching their worst ODI score, against the West Indies at the 2011 World Cup.
Stuart Binny recorded figures of six for four off 4.4 overs, the best by an Indian in an ODI. Mohit Sharma also took a career-best four for 22. “I’d love to bowl on this wicket every day,” Binny said.
Debutant Mithun Ali was the top scorer for Bangladesh with 26, but his was the first wicket for Binny, and sparked the remarkable revolving door of Bangladesh batsmen.
Mushfiqur Rahim was the only other Bangladeshi in double figures, with 11. The final blow for Bangladesh came when Sharma took out Shakib Al Hasan, who nicked a gem of a delivery on four. Binny said India wasn’t fazed by having to defend such a low total.
“The plan was to come out hard, bowl in good areas, and don’t give away easy runs,” he said.
Earlier, Taskin Ahmed took five for 28 on debut. In overcast conditions ideal for the seam bowlers, Bangladesh had India wobbling right from the start. The match was halted in the sixth over for 2 1/2 hours because of rain, after which it was reduced to 41 overs per side.
