Tamim is on fire here. Thakur is being taken for a ride. Just behind a length, it's pulled hard over mid-wicket for one more boundary.
SIX
Tamim is punishing Shardul here. It was down the leg side, Tamim moves inside the line and lifts it over fine leg for a maximum.

Two in two for Tamim. It was full and wide outside off again, Tamim throws the kitchen sink at it and crashes it square through the off side this time for another boundary.

The ball was full and well outside off, Iqbal thrashes it through the gap in the covers to find the fence.
BAN: 31/1 after 3 overs
20:55
OUT
Sundar picks up a wicket in his first over again. 50th T20 stumping for Dinesh Karthik. Das give the charge once more and this time the bowler darts it wide outside off. Das can't get to it and this allows the keeper to take the bails off with ease.

20:34
Rohit falls on the last ball of the innings. India finish at 176 for 3.
20:29

IND: 172/2 after 19.1 overs
20:25
What an over for India. It's raining sixes here.
SIX
Now Rohit Sharma- he just hits it and it stays hit.
SIX
Raina takes on the pull off the front foot. Swings hard and sends it sailing over the mid-wicket fence for a maximum.
SIX
Another big one for Rohit Sharma! Right off the meat. Short ball angling in from around the wicket, the opener stands tall and takes on the pull. Connects well and muscles the pull over mid-wicket for half a dozen.
IND: 161/1 after 18 overs
20:18
SIX
Rohit has finally managed to connect one. It was full on the pads, Sharma kneeled down to bring out the slog sweep. A spectator takes the catch.
IND: 140/1 after 17 overs
20:13
Raina has taken the initiative here so far, he is 31 off 20 balls. Rohit also needs to step up now (58 off 49 balls). Just 24 balls to go.
IND: 126/1 after 16 overs
20:06
Raina on rampage this over. 11 off it. India need few more these.

SIX
Raina connects- it was tossed up and he got down to slog sweep it over the mid-wicket fence.
IND: 104/1 after 14 overs
20:00
Rohit Sharma completes his 13th T20I fifty. He must relieved to get to mark. Now he needs to take India to bigger mark.
IND: 93/1 after 13 overs
19:54
Just 4 runs off the 12th over. The Bangladesh bowlers have kept things tight here. India need to up the ante in the last 8 overs.
IND: 84/1 after 12 overs
19:50
SIX
Good respons from Rohit. Sharma comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and sends it sailing over the mid-wicket fence. This should break the shackles now.
IND: 80/1 after 11 overs
19:45
OUT
Yorked at 143 kph.
What a delivery by Rubel Hussain. He comes steaming in and bowls an effort delivery. Dhawan plays all around it and misses it to see his middle stump get knocked out. A much-needed wicket for the bowling side. Dhawan goes for 35 off 27 balls.
IND: 70/1 after 9.5 overs
19:25
SIX
ROHITTTT! The captain joins in the fun now- Hasan tosses it up and Rohit goes down on one knee to slog sweep it over the mid-wicket fence.
IND: 38/0 after 5 overs
19:20
Good start by India so far. Rohit Sharma needs a big innings here and so far has looked good. Dhawan is already goo form. If they stay at the crease for a while, Bangladesh may need to chase another big score.
SIX
What a hit! Dhawan comes down the track, expecting a slower one and sends it sailing over the bowler's head. First maximum of the game.
IND: 27/0 after 4 overs
18:35
Bangladesh have won the toss and elected to bowl first.
Not surprising give they had successfully chased a record target in their previous match.
Both teams have made a change each to their squads of the previous match. While Abu Hider comes in for Taskin for Bangladesh, Mohammad Siraj gets a chance in place of Jaydev Unadkat for India.
