India (370-4) beat Bangladesh (283-9) by 87 runs
A valiant effort by Bangladesh but, in the end, they were simply chasing a total that was beyond them. India's 370-4 owed much to the brilliance of Virender Sehwag (175) and Viran Kohli (100no) and it was always going to be a tall order for Bangladesh to get anywhere near such a mammoth score. The fact they got to within 87 deserves much credit. Tamim Iqbal (70) and captain Shakib Al Hasan (55) were the key contributors, while Munaf Patel picked up four wickets for India.

It's been a brave fight by Bangladesh but now it's all over red rover. A few flamboyant shots from the tailenders for the cameras at the end.

Just one wicket left to go now after Harbhajan throws down the stumps and Shafiul has to go. Shafiul defends from leg stump, straight to Harbhajan swooping in from wide mid on.

WICKET! Shafiul run out 0 OVER 48: Bangladesh 279/8 Hasan 26* Shafiul Islam 0*
So, Bangladesh require over 90 runs with three wickets and three overs remaining.... all to play for then. Zaheer is going for the block hole. Penultimate delivery he mixes it up and fires in a short one, striking a ducking Raqibul Hasan straight on the helmet, and they get a leg bye. Then it's lbw and out for Razzak off Zaheer's final ball.
