ICC World T20: India Have It Easy Against Bangladesh

Bangladesh threatened to do with Netherlands did to England. However, their words remained on paper and India fashioned a breezy win against their neighbours in their first tie of the ICC World Twenty20 in England.
India’s top order batting came to the fore. After the speculation over Virender Sehwag’s injury and about it having a link with a rift with the Indian captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the team settled down to open with Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir, a move that paid off quite well.
While Rohit Sharma continued his good form from the stint in the IPL 2 in South Africa with the Deccan Chargers, making thirty-six from twenty-three balls, Gambhir laid the foundation with his half century. Dhoni came in to bat at one down to make twenty-six runs. But it was Yuvraj Singh who provided the final impetus to the innings with his forty-one from just eighteen balls to leave Bangladesh feeling they got more that what they had bargained for.
Chasing 181, Bangladesh relied heavily on Junaid Siddique’s forty-one. But the intermittent fall of wickets including the fall of Siddique himself combined with the rather stiff total meant that Bangladesh eventually succumbed to the pressure earning Pragyan Ojha four wickets and India a win by twenty-five runs at Trent Bridge .
