IND vs BAN, T20 World Cup 2024 warm-up LIVE

After 20 overs, India 182/5 (Hardik Pandya 40, Ravindra Jadeja 4)

Leg-spinner Rishad Hossain concedes 10 in the penultimate over of the innings, which includes an inside-out slap over extra cover that ends up going all the way for a maximum! Shoriful Islam bowls the final over, conceding seven in the first five deliveries before having to leave the ground after copping an injury on his bowling hand. The left-arm pacer was left injured while trying to stop the ball off a powerful shot down the ground by Pandya. The India vice-captain had collected a boundary in the previous delivery, pulling a short-of-length ball towards the midwicket fence, and was looking to collect back-to-back boundaries. Soumya Sarkar bowls the final delivery, which goes for a dot as the ball stays low and goes under Pandya’s bat.

India set Bangladesh 183 to win in their only practice game before the T20 World Cup, with Pandya remaining unbeaten on 40 off 23 balls! Can they start their tour of the United States and the Caribbean with a victory, even if it’s a practice match? Stay tuned to find out!

After 18 overs, India 165/5 (Hardik Pandya 26, Ravindra Jadeja 2)

Ravindra Jadeja joins Hardik Pandya at the centre after SKY’s dismissal, with the Pandya assuming charge for the remainder of the innings. Shoriful is brought back in the 18th over and he bowls out a tidy third over, conceding six runs off it that includes a couple of wides.

OUT! End of Suryakumar Yadav’s entertaining knock as he perishes while trying to smash Tanvir for a maximum down the ground. Didn’t quite middle it, hitting it off the toe end, resulting in a simple catch for Towhid Hridoy in front of the boundary rope. IND 159/5

SIX! SIX! SIX! After opening his account with a four, Hardik Pandya smashes Tanvir Islam for a hat-trick of maximums at the start of the 17th over! Smashes the first two down the ground on either side of the wicket before muscling the third one over deep midwicket! IND 158/4

After 16 overs, India 140/4 (Suryakumar Yadav 31, Hardik Pandya 5)

FOUR! Hardik Pandya gets off the mark with a boundary, dancing down the track and launching the ball over extra cover off Shakib’s bowling. SKY collects one for himself in the final delivery of the over, cutting a flat, wide delivery behind square for a four as Shakib signs off wicketless for 47 runs at the end of his quota.

OUT! Dube’s caught near the straight boundary while trying to smash Mahedi out of the park, with Mahmudullah grabbing a blinder while moving to his right. Dube had smashed the off-spinner for a maximum over long off at the start of the over and was hoping to collect a second for the over, but was undone by Mahmudullah’s brilliance. Disappointing outing for him, with his strike rate less than 100 today. IND 130/4

After 14 overs, India 122/3 (Suryakumar Yadav 26, Shivam Dube 6)

DROPPED! Chance put down at long on after a mishit by Shivam Dube off Tanvir Islam’s bowling as the southpaw gets another shot at making an impression in the warm-up before the tournament gets underway. 10 off Tanvir’s over.

After 12 overs, India 106/3 (Suryakumar Yadav 18, Shivam Dube 2)

FOUR! Pant retires hurt right after bringing up his half-century with a boundary, which also brings up the hundred for Team India with more than eight overs left in the innings! Brought up the milestone with a heave towards the cow corner fence, and was dashing off towards the pavilion right away. Shivam Dube joins SKY at the centre, and he’ll hope to make the most of the opportunity, given how stacked India’s middle-order is.

After 10 overs, India 92/2 ( Rishabh Pant (wk) 48, Suryakumar Yadav 12)

SIX! Out comes the trademark one-handed maximum from Rishabh Pant as he smashes the ball high over long on off Mahmudullah’s bowling in the spin-bowling all-rounder’s second over. FOUR! First boundary for SKY as he smashes the ball over the bowler’s head in leg-spinner Rishad Hossain’s first over. 19 collected in the last two overs. Pant is a couple of runs away from a fine half-century. Drinks taken on the field at the halfway stage of the Indian innings.

After 8 overs, India 73/2 ( Rishabh Pant (wk) 38, Suryakumar Yadav 3)

Excellent first over from Mahmudullah as he concedes just six runs while collecting the prized wicket of Rohit Sharma. Seam-bowling all-rounder Soumya Sarkar is off to an expensive start from the other end as he concedes 12 in his first over, with Pant hitting him for back-to-back boundaries in the last two deliveries of what was otherwise turning out to be a decent first over, whipping the ball towards fine leg on both occasions. Suryakumar Yadav joins Pant at the centre after Rohit’s dismissal, and has collected three singles in as many deliveries.

OUT! Rohit falls right after the conclusion of the powerplay as Mahmudullah strikes in his very first over! Rohit smashes the ball down the ground, hoping to clear the long on boundary and collect his second maximum, but is unable to get enough power on the shot, resulting in a simple catch for Rishad Hossain. IND 59/2

After 6 overs, India 55/1 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 20, Rishabh Pant (wk) 27)

SIX! SIX! Back-to-back maximums for Pant, who’s starting to get into his element now in his first appearance in an Indian jersey (albeit in an unofficial game) since December 2022. The wicketkeeper-batter shuffles to his left to get close to the line of the delivery, swinging his bat firmly to send it sailing over deep square leg with a slog sweep. Follows it up with a reverse sweep in the next delivery, and this time clears the backward point fence. Ends the over with a third maximum off Shakib’s bowling, clearing deep midwicket with another slog sweep that brings up India’s fifty at the end of the powerplay! 22 off Shakib’s second over.

After 5 overs, India 33/1 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 19, Rishabh Pant (wk) 6)

FOUR! First boundary of the day for Pant as he dances down the track against Mahedi, who returns to the attack in the fifth over, smashing the ball over mid on. Seven off the over, with skipper Rohit collecting a brace in the final delivery.

After 4 overs, India 26/1 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 17, Rishabh Pant (wk) 1)

SIX! First maximum at the Nassau County Stadium in the very next over after Rohit collects the first boundaries at the newly-constructed venue. The ‘Hitman’ crouches low, getting inside the line of the delivery, and goes for a pick-up shot to deposit the ball in the stands beyond the backward square leg fence. Seven off the over, with new batter Rishabh Pant having opened his account with a single in the third delivery.

After 3 overs, India 19/1 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 11, Rishabh Pant (wk) 0)

FOUR! FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries for Rohit off senior Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, who bowls the third over. Rohit gets on the back foot and pulls a half-tracker towards deep midwicket before sweeping the next ball after the left-arm spinner fires a fuller delivery. Eight from the over.

After 2 overs, India 11/1 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 3, Rishabh Pant (wk) 0)

OUT! Samson doesn’t quite take off as an opener today, getting trapped leg-before by left-arm pacer Shoriful Islam, who is introduced from the other end. Samson’s late to bring his bat down to the ball that angles back in after pitching along middle, hitting him on the pad right in front of middle. Looked a bit high, but would’ve clipped the stumps at the very least. Samson gestures for a review, but there’s no DRS in the warm-up stage of the tournament. Good recovery for Shoriful, who had conceded six wides in four deliveries before the wicket. Rishabh Pant joins Rohit at the centre.

After 1 over, India 5/0 ( Rohit Sharma (C) 3, Sanju Samson 1)

Five runs collected in the first over of the Indian innings, including a brace to skipper Rohit in the very first delivery as he decides to charge down the track against the off-spinner and go inside out towards extra cover. Samson later gets off the mark with a single.

IND vs BAN, T20 World Cup 2024 warm-up LIVE

Well, well, well, who do we have here. Captain Rohit Sharma walks out to open the innings, and it’s Sanju Samson and not his Rajasthan Royals teammate Yashasvi Jaiswal walking alongside him.

That should raise a few eyebrows heading into the tournament opener against Ireland four days from now.

Bangladesh, meanwhile, start with off-spin with Mahedi Hasan bowling the first over.

“Not for any particular reason, conditions here look a bit challenging. Virat has just arrived yesterday, he’s going to miss out, the rest are all available and we’ll see how to use them. We arrived quite early, so the body clock has adjusted, we just have to see how well we can adjust to these conditions,” says India skipper Rohit during the toss.

Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto, meanwhile, states that the Tigers would have bowled first, and that they’re resting pacers Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman.

TOSS: India win the toss and skipper Rohit Sharma opts to bat.

Former Sri Lanka batter Russel Arnold analyses the Nassau County Stadium pitch:

“Subcontinent feel in terms of the weather. Fabulous weather. It’s a drop-in pitch but a good one. Hard and got a good covering of grass. No small boundaries on either side. 180 is a par score. Batting first or bowling score won’t matter today.”
