Bangladesh won the toss and opted to bat first against India in the second match of the three-match ODI series at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Wednesday.

Earlier in the first match, the Tiger bowled brilliantly against India but they could not bat well. However, Mehidy Hasan Miraz’s unbeaten 38 runs helped Bangladesh win the match.

The hosts were 136 for nine and needed 51 runs to win the match. They brilliantly came from behind as Miraz and Mustafizur Rahman made an unbeaten partnership of 51 runs and snatched the victory away from India.

Back in 2015, the Tigers won their only ODI series against the mighty neighbour by securing the three-match series 2-1 at home. However, after that, they lost five ODI matches in a row to India with the last coming in the 2019 World Cup.

Bangladesh (Playing XI): Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das(c), Anamul Haque, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Nasum Ahmed, Ebadot Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman.

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Siraj, Umran Malik.
