  1. Ban 11-0

    Target 197

    Arshdeep has not been quite as accurate, and Tanzid Hasan lashes him past gully for another four after he drags it down short and wide outside off stump.

  2. Michael Carberry
    Former England batter on BBC Sounds

    Surely as a keeper you know if he's got an edge on that or not?

  3. Ban 7-0

    Target 197

    Bumrah is bang on the money from the off, the openers can only nurdle him for a couple of singles, and from the final delivery Rishabh Pant has a half-hearted shout after Litton Das nudges at one outside off stump.

  4. Michael Carberry
    Former England batter on BBC Sounds

    If India make some early inroads you feel like this game could be put to bed pretty quickly.

  5. Ban 5-0

    Target 197

    Arshdeep Singh drops short outside off, and Tanzid Hasan cuts him away over point for the first boundary off the fifth ball.

    Here comes Jasprit Bumrah from the Sir Andy Roberts End - one great quickie bowling from a stand named after another.

  6. Michael Carberry
    Former England batter on BBC Sounds

    India will be fairly happy with 196-5 - it is probably 30-40 runs above par on this pitch.

    They were helped by some average tactics from the Bangladesh side. I'm not sure they got some of their bowling plans right in terms of personnel either.

  7. Ban 1-0

    Target 197

    Litton Das nudges the left-armer off his pads for an easy single, and Bangladesh are off.

  8. The players and umpires are back out, with openers Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das ready to get the reply under way. Arshdeep Singh is set for the first over.

    WinViz has India firmly on top at the interval.

    Agree or not?

    WinViz has it 90-10 in India's favour against Bangladesh at the intervalBBC Sport/CricViz

  10. Some measure of revenge for Rishad Hossain after being clobbered into the stands.

  11. Target 197

    Thanks, Ffion!

    This will be a tough, tough test for Bangladesh, but you never know - funny things can happen in T20 cricket.

  12. Big statement from India.

    Hardik's unbeaten 50 was the top score, with contributions from Virat Kohli with 37 at the top of the order, Rishabh Pant added 36 and Shivam Dube made 34.

    But Bangladesh didn't help themselves - Mahmudullah bowled two overs, went for only eight runs but didn't complete his allocation, which is bizarre.

    They are facing a very difficult chase, and here to take you through it is Tim Oscroft.

  13. India's Hardik Pandya: "The wicket looked alright, par would have been 180 but 196 is a good score. With our bowling and some consistency, hopefully we should do well.

    "It (the pitch) tends to get slower, some balls are sliding down when hitting a good length. Discipline will be crucial."

  14. Roushan Alam
    Host of The Bangla Cricket Podcast on BBC Sounds

    India dominated from the very start. They did it with such ease.

    Bangladesh looked like they might fight back at certain times but they failed to turn the screw.

  15. Ind 196-5

    A very impressive performance from India and Hardik Pandya, who guides the last ball of the over for four to bring up a 27-ball half-century.

    A sloppy, inconsistent performance from Bangladesh, who need all of their batters to play the innings of their lives. They need 197 to win.

  16. Roushan Alam
    Host of The Bangla Cricket Podcast on BBC Sounds

    This has turned into quite a messy over.

  17. Ind 192-5

    Now a wide.

    This is poor from Mustafizur, who is usually so consistent and economical.

  18. Ind 190-5

    Of course, the free hit is edged past the keeper for four.

  19. Ind 186-5

    A stinker from Mustafizur.

    A no-ball in the last over, gives away a free hit.

  20. Ind 182-5

    Oh, that's unlucky.

    Outside off stump and edged for four.
