IND vs BAN, Asia Cup 2023 Highlights: Bangladesh Beat India By 6 Runs

India and Sri Lanka will lock horns in the final of the tournament at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, September 17.

"We wanted to give some game time to the guys, keeping the bigger picture in mind. Not compromising on how we wanted to play this game. Get in some players who are likely to play the World Cup. Axar batted brilliantly but couldn't finish. He showed a lot of character. But credit to the Bangladesh bowlers. Gill's hundred was brilliant. He backs his game, he knows exactly how he wants to play. Pretty clear on what he wants to do for the team. Look at his form over the last year. Pretty solid against the new ball. Works really hard, there's no optional practice for Gill."

Wicket! Shami did well to smash a boundary in the fourth delivery but it was too little and too late as he got run out while attempting a second run to get back to strike. Bangladesh have won the match.

Wicket! Oh no! After playing such a crucial knock, Axar departs at the brink of winning the game for India. He departs for 42 as Bangladesh are now one wicket away from win.

Wicket! Can you believe it? He hit that straight to the fielder. That wasn't the best of deliveries but was a bit of luck in favor of Mustafizur and Bangladesh. Tricky situation here as India lose eighth wicket.

Axar did well to hit those crucial boundaries in the last two deliveries. He looks in a bit of pain but keeps his team in the hunt as they remain just 17 runs away from the victory. Big over for India, 14 runs came off it.

Wicket! Just after playing a stunning shot for six, Shubman looked for another but only managed to find the fielder at the deep long off. Gill goes after playing a memorable knock but he will be disappointed of not finishing the match. He departs for 121 as India lose seventh wicket.

Century! Gill continues to impress. You can't keep this lad from scoring big runs for long. Smashes his 5th ODI century to keep his team in the contest.

Wicket! There's another one. Bangladesh won't allow India here to take easy win. Infact it's looks a tricky situation here for the Men in Blue. There was no need for Jadeja to do that at this point of time. Completely missed out on the ball that found his stumps. India lose sixth wicket.

Wicket! This time he misses out on that shot and throws his wicket away. Shakib gets his reward as he dismisses Suryakumar for 26. India lose fifth wicket as and they still need more than 100 runs. Jadeja is next in at the crease.

That was a brilliant over from skipper Shakib. Suryakumar just managed to hold his foot back in the crease. Two runs came off that over.

Wicket! There was no need for that at this point of time. It looked out at the first glimpse. This could get tricky with a wicket in this moment. Ishan goes for 5 as India lose fourth wicket.

Fifty, A stunning way to reach the half-century. Gill clears the boundary comfortably as he reaches fifty to keep India in the game despite early wickets. He needs to continue this.

Wicket! He hit that straight to the fielder. Rahul would be kicking himself for that. He looked set for yet another special innings. Shamim makes no mistake as India lose third wicket.

Rahul and Gill are going well at the moment with the partnership. Drinks are on the field for now.

There's the confirmation as Rahul survives. That looked always rising with the bounce and also the point of contact with the pad. These two will be aiming for a partnership here amid tight bowling from Bangladesh. Another good over as three runs came off that.

Wicket! There's another one. Tanzim looks to be on fire at the moment. That was a horrible leave from Tilak as he gets knocked off. India go two down.

Wicket! That was the start Bangladesh needed with the ball. What a way to take the first ODI wicket on debut. It's a big fish as Rohit departs for 0.

Shakib Al Hasan was once again a key contributor for his team as he helped them to recover from 59/4 to 265/8. He scored brilliant 8 runs with crucial efforts from Towhid Hridoy (54) and Nasum Ahmed (44). For India, Shardul Thakur was brilliant with the ball as he picked up three wickets for 65 runs while Mohammed Shami took two wickets.

Mahedi does well to finish the innings with a boundary. This is a very competitive total posted by Bangladesh here. 12 runs came off the last over as they reach 265/8 in their 50 overs.

Wicket! This wicket was much-needed for India as Nasum well set to provide a perfect finish. Prasidh Krishna opens his account in the match as he removes Nasum for 44.

These two are doing a great job with runs keep coming for Bangladesh. Let's see if they can bat till the end with four overs remaining. Nine runs came off that Shami's over.

He will end the over with a boundary. So end of Jadeja's quota. Bangladesh have crossed that 200-run mark as they take 13 runs off the last over. They will look to carry the momentum with seven overs remaining.

Wicket! Shami breaks the partnership that was looking set to provide Bangladesh a much-needed finish. They lose the seventh wicket as India eye to wrap things up here as quickly as possible. Hridoy played brilliantly for his 54.

Fifty! This has been a crucial innings from Hridoy as he reaches his half-century. Bangladesh need him till end for a perfect finish with 10 overs remaining in the innings.

Thakur has always been a wicket-taking bowler and he replicated the same in this match as well. Finishes well after being hit for a boundary in the first ball. Seven runs came off that over.

The dismissal of Shamim gives Jadeja his 200th ODI wicket as he becomes only the second Indian player after Kapil Dev with 2000 runs and 200 wickets in ODIs.
