BAN in 3 overs

Litton tries to flick the fourth but gets a leading edge which rolls back to the bowler. An attempted slog on the fifth from Litton, he is beaten by some distance.

India opts not to go for a review.

A bottom edge on the final delivery, reaches Pant on one bounce.
Does India have enough on the board?
This is the highest score at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua. India got their thanks to Hardik Pandya’s 27-ball half century. Bangladesh batters have had their troubles this World Cup and they’ll need to put on their best show to get past an in-form India bowling unit.

This is punched through cover by Hardik for one more. Short and pulled away by Axar for a single. Full outside off and driven by Hardik for two more to deep point. Mustafizur has also over-stepped and that is a no-ball. Free-hit coming up! FOUR! Sliced away by Hardik and he beats the wicketkeeper to find the boundary. This is too wide outside off and called wide. Another extra in the final over. Into the pitch and Hardik swings on the leg-side and misses. Precious dot ball for Bangladesh. FOUR!

Toss - Bangladesh
Bangladesh wins the toss and opts to bowl against India.
Najmul Hossain Shanto: We would like to bowl first. We would like to restrict them to a small total and that is the plan. We know the conditions here and also about the wind factor. Looks a good wicket. 150-160 will be a good score I reckon. We have one change. Taskin is not playing.
Rohit Sharma: We wanted to bat and that’s what we got. Looks like a good wicket and depends on how much the sun is beating down and making the pitch slow. Important to assess the conditions quickly. We are playing the same team.
