Over 43.0 |
Virat Kohli is the Man of the Match and perhaps one knock short of capturing the Player of the Tournament as well. India then takes on Sri Lanka in the Final of the Idea Cup on the 13th. |

Full credit to Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah to make something out of the match. Bangladesh had slipped to a hopeless score of 95 for 5. For the second time in a row, the Indian bowlers failed to clean up the opposition which was on the mat. Of course, there isn't much in the pitch for the pacers. |

This evening the dew wasn't that heavy or rather it arrived late compared to the other matches. Once it set in, there was no chance for the Bangladeshi spinner and their fielders struggled to stop the ball cleanly. |

Make it six out of six, the team that has chased has gone onto win in this Tri Series! Splendind century from young Virat Kohli to ease India past a target of 248. Bangladesh had their chances due to Naeem Islam's lovely off breaks but were defied any further successes by the pair of Kohli and Dhoni. |

India win by 6 wickets with 42 balls to spare. |
