Washington Sundar got India its second wicket as he dismissed skipper Najmul Shanto for 11. The Indian spinner gave the ball good air as Shanto looked to hit him out of the park. Shanto though couldn’t time the ball well as Hardik Pandya settled under the ball and took an easy catch. 

Litton Das became the third batter to be dismissed as he was out in the 1st ball of the 6th over. Varun Chakravarthy had the wicket of Das as the Bangladeshi batter went for a sweep shot. The batter could only look back in shock as he heard the death rattle to be dismissed for 14 runs from 11 balls.
