Rohit Sharma High On Fire
India’s three-match series against Bangladesh got off to a forgettable start on Sunday (December 4), as they lost the first ODI at the Sher-E-Bangla Stadium in Dhaka. The hosts recently defeated the Men in Blue by one wicket in a thrilling match that went down to the wire.
Bangladesh was reeling at 136-9 at one point while chasing a total of 187 and appeared to be in control of the match. But Bangladesh won the game thanks to a brilliant performance from lower-order batsman Mehidy Hasan, who also contributed to a 50-over partnership with Mustafizur Rahman. This victory ranks among the Tigers’ biggest triumphs in cricket history.
Although Mehidy’s efforts deserve full credit, India’s own field failings were also to blame. The all-rounder top-edged a delivery in the 43rd over that wicket-keeper batter KL Rahul appeared to have no trouble catching. However, the high-flying Bangladesh hitter was given another chance when the Indian vice skipper dropped a sitter.
Mehidy received yet another escape on the next ball as he smacked a delivery in the air toward third-man, where Washington Sundar was positioned. Although it appeared that Sundar would make a simple catch of the ball, that was not the case. Sundar may have failed to try the catch because he couldn’t see the ball in the spotlights.
Rohit Sharma, the captain, lost his cool after the consecutive mistakes and became furious with Washington. The Indian skipper could be heard expressing his annoyance to the players in a video that has gone viral on social media because he was dissatisfied with the all-performance rounder’s on the field.
KL Rahul’s 70-ball 73 was the only bright spot in the Indian batting lineup earlier in the day as the rest of the team collapsed. On Wednesday, the same location will host the second One-Day International ( December 7).
With the help of all-rounder Mehndi Hasan Miraj’s (38 out) innings and Shakibul Hasan’s five wickets, India won the first ODI here on Sunday by one wicket. gained a 1-0 advantage in the cricket series.
Hasan Mahmood (0), who scored 136 runs for Bangladesh, became their ninth wicket to fall in the 40th over. However, in the following six overs, the India team was unable to get the final wicket. In the following six overs, a 51-run partnership will be made for the last wicket. Mehdi Hasan (39 balls, four fours, two sixes) and Mustafizur Rahman (10 not out51-run )’s partnership for the last wicket was crucial in this.
