Shubman Gill’s classy century (121, 133b, 8x4, 5x6) and Axar Patel’s final flourish (42, 34b, 3x4, 2x6) were not enough for India as Rohit’s men went down to Bangladesh by six runs in the final Super 4s fixture, a dead rubber, of the Asia Cup Super 4s at the R. Premadasa Stadium here.
Mustafizur Rahman took three wickets, including two in the penultimate over including the crucial one of Axar to derail India’s victory march.
Earlier in the Bangladesh innings on Friday, Ravindra Jadeja joined Kapil Dev as the only other Indian all-rounder to have achieved a double of scoring 2,000 runs and scalping 200 wickets.
