Bangladesh Had A Tough Ride
All Bangladesh could do was score 164 runs, whose last match for the national side Mahmudullah Riyad played. Mahmudullah could score only eight runs before Mayank Yadav dismissed him. The pressure created a fallout from the minds of the batters as they were not able to keep up with the aggression that the Indians were playing with.
A wicket on the very first ball of the innings!

Future Concerns For The Indian Team
With the ICC event next year in mind, the Indian management, led by Gambhir, would naturally be interested in identifying who might fill the gap left by the underperforming players. While Samson was struggling to get into any sort of a groove, Abhishek too had had his share of bad days at work in the preceding matches. So there will be an eye on building strength around the mainstay.
