    Here's how India captain Rohit Sharma fell after after he made 48 from 40 balls to get his side off to a flyer.

    Thanks, Sam.

    This is looking like a walk in the park for India so far. Bangladesh need wickets, and soon.

    Right then, as the players take a drink, it's time for us to make a chance make a chance as well.

    To take you through to the end of this one, it's over to Timothy Abraham.

    No risks taken by Virat Kohli or Shubman Gill and they are still able to take seven from Nasum Ahmed's over.

    That's drinks and Bangladesh need to come up with something special if they're to win it from here.

    Target 257

    Four from Mustafizur Rahman's over as India just tick over.

    They're in complete control of this chase and look set to join New Zealand on eight points at the top of the table.

    Still, with 142 runs still required, there is time for Bangladesh to change that. Theoretically, at least...

    I can't imagine India will need a helping hand to win from this position but Bangladesh have just given them one.

    Virat Kohli flicks the ball through the leg-side off Nasum Ahmed. It should only be a single but a horrendous piece of fielding in the deep allows the ball to squirm through and trickle into the boundary sponge.

    Shoriful Islam won't be seeking that one out in the highlights.

    Jambarrell: Sure, India are the best team in this competition and will romp through to the semis. But as we've seen so often before, semi finals are so dangerous - one brilliant individual performance on the opposition and it can all crash down. Never a foregone conclusion.

    Target 257

    A very welcome quiet over for Bangladesh.

    Just three singles from Mustafizur's latest as Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill give the full house at Pune that bit longer to soak everything in as India head towards what looks likely to be another convincing win.

    It's raining sixes in Pune. Here are two from Shubman GIll in the last over of the powerplay...

    Target 257

    Despite taking the wicket, this is comfortably Hasan Mahmud's worst over in the match.

    He gives Virat Kohli a free hit by overstepping and the new batter smokes it past mid-on for four.

    To make matters worse, it's another no-ball, another free hit and Kohli nails it over long on! Six!

    Some start for Kohli.

    Short again and this time Rohit Sharma has picked out the man in the deep!

    Hasan Mahmud was undeterred after seeing the last ball go for six, banged it in again and gets his man.

    Rohit didn't get all of it and Towhid Hridoy is there at deep backward square to take the catch.

    That's gone miles!

    Short from Hasan Mahmud and this time Rohit Sharma is ready for it.

    He hooks it high over long leg and about 30 rows back into the crowd.

    This is a magnificent shot. The third boundary on the trot for Gill. He saved the best one until last.

  14. Ind 80-0published at 12 overs

    Target 257

    The first boundary in the over was a touch streaky, the next two from Shubman Gill are all class.

    He times the ball off his pads magnificently for four with little more than a flick of the wrists before creaming the next through the covers.

    Batting of the highest quality from the India opener.

    Can Mustafizur create some fizz here and bag himself a wicket as he takes the next over?

    Mustafizur Rahman is back into the attack and nearly creates a chance second ball.

    Shubman Gill tries to carve the ball away but is slightly cramped for room and the ball goes at a catchable height but just wide of backward point for four.

    That certainly tested the India captain. Magnificent bowling by Hasan.

    Target 257

    Bangladesh's bowlers might be under the pump but Hasan Mahmud has been the exception.

    He surprises Rohit Sharma with a very sharp, well-directed bouncer that the India captain has to duck at the last moment.

    Hasan tries it again next ball and this time Rohit takes it on, not middled but he gets it into the gap for four.

    Good contest, this.

    These two guys don't look like they want to throw this away. And Virat Kohli, in at three, certainly won't either.
