India score 196/5

This has been the best batting surface India has played on and they have rightly notched up their highest total in the tournament. The start was pretty good as Rohit and Kohli were off the blocks quickly, though the former departed within the fourth over, Kohli and Pant kept the scoreboard ticking. Both got to their 30s and threw it away. Dube took his time but caught up with a 24-ball 34. But it was Hardik's knock that gave India the impetus towards the end. He was at his best as he took the onus and got the score close to 200. Bangladesh are not out of this as the pitch did look good for batting and they have the firepower to chase this total down.
