IND Vs BAN: The Arun Jaitley Stadium is the only venue where Bangladesh registered a win against India in the shortest format during their 2019 tour. But in 2024, when the second match was played in that same stadium, the visitors failed to put up a match-winning performance and lost the match and the series by 86 runs. The Men in Blue are miles ahead of the Bangla Tigers with a lead of two nil in this three-match series.
India batted first in this game after the Bangladeshis won the toss and chose to bowl first. The home side batted well to amass 221 runs on the board in their quota of 20 overs. However, the response from the batters of Bangladesh was a low one yet again. Shanto and co could reach only 135 runs for the loss of nine wickets in their allotted 20 overs, so the visitors fell 86 runs short. India also achieved a biggest margin of wins against Bangladesh in the T20 International matches yesterday.
