As it’s turned out, excellent all round performance by India. Deepak Chahar undoubtedly the hero, but important knocks from Rahul and Iyer which put Bangladesh under pressure. And superbly led🌊 by Roh💙it Sharma. Well played!👏👏

Very impressed with the way has evolved as a T20I bowler. Al꧅ways had the ability to pick up wickets with the new ball but has worked hard to bowl in the middle and end overs. Got a lot of variations up his sleeves & knows when to use theꦡm.
