Like the previous encounters India has had in the World Cup, Bangladesh faced a daunting challenge scoring runs against arguably the best bowling attack in the competition. On a batting-friendly surface, they managed a modest 256/8 on Thursday.
Despite an impressive start that had Bangladesh positioned strongly at 90 for no loss after 14 overs, India's bowling once again proved dominant, even without all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who left the field with an ankle injury.
