T20 World Cup 2024 warm-up: IND vs BAN Highlights: Unmissable video recap, turning points, match analysis, stats, and more

IND vs BAN At the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, Team India’s sole warm-up match of the major event saw them upset Bangladesh by 60 runs, setting the stage for an explosive T20 World Cup 2024 campaign. The Indian captain, Rohit Sharma, chose to bat first after winning the toss. Together with assistance from Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant’s half-century helped the Men in Blue reach 182/5. The Bengal Tigers lost wickets at frequent intervals, so their chase never really got going. While Mahmudullah offered some encouragement, it was too little, too late, as Rohit and company secured a decisive victory.

Allow us to examine the game’s highlights:

1. With his fifty, Rishabh Pant made a strong return.

After spending over a year away from the Indian camp, wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant made it seem as though he had never left by amassing 53 runs off of 32 balls. Following Sanju Samson’s ejection, Pant arrived at the crease early. The left-hander finished his innings with four massive sixes and four boundaries.

2. Arshdeep Singh provides two early innovations for India

In the opening over of Bangladesh’s innings, lanky left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh gave India a terrific start by taking out Soumya Sarkar. The pacer made good use of the surface, generating both bounce and pace. With an inswinging delivery, he even eliminated the dangerous Litton Das in his very next over.

End of a successful powerplay for #TeamIndia 👌👌

2⃣ wickets for Arshdeep Singh and 1⃣ wicket for Mohd. Siraj 🙌

3. Vice captain Hardik Pandya hits forty off twenty-three.

On the pitch, all-around player Hardik Pandya had an excellent day. As he took on the Bangladeshi bowlers and destroyed them all over the pitch, he was playing at his best as a batsman. He hit two boundaries and four massive sixes in his 23-ball stay. The 30-year-old was excellent with the ball as well, taking one wicket in the warm-up match for the T20 World Cup 2024.

WELL PLAYED, HARDIK PANDYA..!!!

40* (23) with 2 fours and 4 sixes – smashed 3 sixes in a row, a great news for India just before the World Cup, in form Hardik will be a great asset for India. 🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/RKH31VBPXu
