India maintained their unbeaten run in the ongoing T20 World Cup as they secured a commanding victory over Bangladesh in a Super 8 match on Saturday. Opting to bat first, India set a formidable target of 196/5, propelled by vice-captain Hardik Pandya’s impressive half-century. In response, a strong bowling performance, highlighted by Kuldeep Yadav’s three-wicket haul, restricted Bangladesh to 146/8, securing India a convincing win by 50 runs.
During the match, skipper Rohit Sharma entertained fans with a light-hearted moment when he humorously instructed Kuldeep Yadav during his bowling spell. Rohit’s on-field comment, “Aada maarne de na,” referring to allowing the batsman to play freely after a dismissal, quickly became a viral sensation on social media.
Reflecting on the team’s performance in T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma emphasized the importance of collective contributions from all players and praised the squad’s adaptability to the conditions. “We played really well and adapted to the conditions. All eight batters need to play their role, and we saw one guy get 50 and we got 197,” Rohit remarked after the match.
With this victory, India sets their sights on their next challenge against Australia in the T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 match scheduled for Monday. The team remains focused on maintaining their winning momentum as they progress through the tournament.
