India beat Bangladesh by 280 runs
India stole the show with their dominant performance against Bangladesh. They stopped a side that was coming here after a historic 2-0 clean sweep over Pakistan. India batting first put 376 runs on the scoreboard with the help of an astonishing hundred from Ashwin and half-centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ravindra Jadeja. Then Indian bowling line-up led by Jasprit Bumrah took over and bowled out the visitors on a paltry score of 149 and gave India a massive first-innings lead which was turned massive by centuries from Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill in the third innings. Then Ashwin once again stole the limelight with a match-winning six-fer and helped India win the match by 280 runs.
