In an exciting cricket match between India and Bangladesh, Bangladesh won by just six runs. This thrilling game happened during the final Super-4 match of the Asia Cup-2023 at the famous R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on a memorable Friday.
Before the Asia Cup final, Team India, led by captain Rohit Sharma, faced a tough challenge from Bangladesh. Despite trying their best to chase a score of 266 runs, they could only manage 259 runs in 49.5 overs. Unfortunately, none of India’s players performed as well as expected in this match. So, there’s a chance some changes might be made for the final game
In an exciting match last Friday at Colombo’s R Premadasa Stadium, Bangladesh won by just 6 runs against Team India in the Asia Cup-2023 Super-4 game. Even with star players like Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, and Shubman Gill, Team India couldn’t reach the 266-run target. Shubman Gill was the standout player, scoring a fantastic century. He scored 121 runs with 8 fours and 5 sixes in 133 balls, making a big impact on the game.
Cricket fans upset when Ishaan failed to uphold his commitment
In this match, even Captain Rohit Sharma couldn’t score any runs. In the second ball of the game, Tanzeem Hasan caught Saqib off Anamul Haq’s delivery. Then, newcomer Tilak Verma only managed to score 5 runs before getting out. After that, all eyes were on Ishan Kishan, who batted at number 5. Unfortunately, he also got out after scoring just 5 runs. It took Kishan 15 balls to make those 5 runs.
We’re not sure if we’ll win the final match
Now, Team India is gearing up for the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka. The big question is whether Ishan Kishan will get to play or if Shreyas Iyer will make a comeback. Shreyas Iyer isn’t fully fit at the moment. In his absence, KL Rahul is batting at number 4, and Ishan Kishan is at number 5. If Iyer returns, he’ll take the number 4 spot, and Rahul will move down to number 5. In that case, Ishan Kishan might have to step out of the team.
