India Beat Bangladesh by 17 Runs to Enter Final in Nidahas Trophy 2018

India defeated Bangladesh by 17 runs to book their slot in the summit clash of the Nidahas Trophy Tri-Series on Wednesday.India are the first team through to the final, as one would have expected before the start of this tri-series. Washington Sundar was stellar with the ball, stacking up dot balls on the Bangladeshis and taking three wickets in the process. Mushfiqur Rahim starred once again with the bat but his unbeaten 72 was in vain this time, unlike when he pulled off a miraculous 215-run chase in Bangladesh’s previous match against Sri Lanka.

This result now means that Sri Lanka’s match against Bangladesh, which is the final group match of this series, is a virtual semi-final, with the team winning that match going through to the final.
