India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Rahul Switches Gears
KL Rahul slams a flat six against Shoriful Islam and follows it up with a gorgeous boundary to deep mid-wicket. 14 runs come from the 37th over. The bowler has had a disastrous day with the ball.

India vs Bangladesh Live Score: A Little Trivia
Both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli moved past Brian Lara(1225) and AB de Villiers(1207) today in the list of batters with most runs in ODI World Cups with 1243 and 1248* runs respectively.
India – 206/3 after 35 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: KL Rahul In At 5
After Iyer's departure, wicketkeeper-batter has walked in the middle to bat alongside Virat. After facing two dots, he opens his account with a boundary. Meanwhile, Nasum Ahmed is back into the attack, he concedes 4 runs from his over. A deja vu moment for Virat and Mahmudullah as the duo faced off back in the 2011 World Cup, too.
India – 198/3 after 33 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Iyer Gone
Mehidy Hasan Miraz starts with the 30th over. Shreyas Iyer looked to dispatch the ball over the mid-wicket fence to collect six runs but instead misread the ball, a bad timing and the ball landed well in Mahmudullah's hand standing near the boundary.
India – 184/3 after 30 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Fifty for Virat
Virat Kohli slams a boundary to deep mid-wicket on a Hasan Mahmud delivery. He takes a single on the next to reach his 3rd half-century of this world cup, 9th of all the editions he's played so far. In ODI cricket, this was his 69th half-century. He raise the bat to celebrate, teammates in the dugout applaud and the MCA crowd echoes with "Kohli-Kohli" chants.
The former Indian skipper is now only the 4th player with most 50-plus scores in international cricket with 212 half-centuries.
India – 178/2 after 29 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Another Injury?
Iyer flicked the last ball of the 25th over to midwicket to collect a boundary. In the previous over he's hit on the leg whilst the fielder made a run-out attempt with a direct hit. The batter survived but a physio had to step in to attend him. All is well. Sigh for India!
India – 164/2 after 26 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: 150 Up
It has taken India 23 overs to bring up 150 runs. How many more would it take to get over the line? Kohli is batting at a strike rate of just over 100, and might switch gears after scoring a half-century, which he is only 12 runs shy of. Shreyas Iyer, meanwhile, has only recently arrived at the crease, though he has struck a four already.
India – 150/2 after 23 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Gill Departs
WICKET!
Shubman Gill loses his wicket moments after completing his half-century. Dancing down the track against Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Gill swings his bat in an attempt to hit the ball over the deep mid-wicket for a maximum, but instead, he finds Mahmudullah taking a commendable catch inches in front of the ropes.
India – 142/2 after 20 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Shubman Brings Up Half-Century
FIFTY!
Shubman Gill brings up his 10th half-century in ODI cricket. Missing the first couple of matches owing to dengue, Gill has now announced his arrival in the competition in some fashion. Now, the opening batter will aim to convert this into a three-figure score.
India – 130/1 after 19 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Rare Calmness
There has been an unusual calmness over the last few overs. Since Hasan Mahmud's eventful over, India have scored 22 runs in five overs. Kohli is batting on 26, while Shubman is just a run away from his 10th ODI half-century.
India – 125/1 after 18 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Rohit Dismissed, Kohli Takes Charge
WICKET!
Agony for Rohit Sharma as he loses his wicket just two runs shy of what would have been an exceptional half-century, but certainly, he has set the platform for his successors. Trying to pull a Hasan Mahmud delivery, the Indian skipper finds Towhid Hridoy in the deep. The Indian skipper departs after scoring 48 runs in 40 deliveries.
And now, the crowd unites to chant 'Kohli, Kohli', who doesn't let anyone down by hitting a four and a six.
India – 103/1 after 13 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: 63 in 10 Overs
This has been an exceptional start for the Indian team. Neither of the openers have ever looked in trouble, barring perhaps the only Shubman Gill shot which caught the outside edge. And even that went for a boundary, which tells everything that one needs to know about Bangladesh's evening. The shoulders draped in green are dropping, as India continue cruising towards the target.
India – 63/0 after 10 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Crowd Chants 'Sachin, Sachin'
Nothing new to report on, barring that the crowd in Pune has started chanting Sachin Tendulkar's name. Reason being, the giant screens showing his daughter, Sara Tendulkar celebrating India's boundaries.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Nasum Introduced
Such has been the carnage in the first three overs that Shanto was forced to turn to spin in only the fourth over. But Nasum Ahmed does a decent job here, conceding only 2 runs.
India – 28/0 after 4 overs.

India – 26/0 after 3 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Fiery Start For India

India – 14/0 after 2 overs.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Bangladesh Finish at 250
48th over, Bumrah has the ball. Starts with a dot, a boundary comes on the next. A single and three dots to end the over with. Change in field setting and Siraj gets the ball for the penultimate over of the innings. Mahmudullah runs two on his first delivery, stays silent on the next to keep the strike. Woah! A huge SIX over the long on boundary.
Mahmudullah on the strike to face the first ball of Jasprit Bumrah in the last over. An appeal for LBW and the skipper goes for a review without thinking much. No wicket on this but Bumrah bowls out Mahmudullah with a toe-crushing yorker. Indeed a death-over specialist! Meanwhile, Shoriful Islam has come in to face the last four balls and he runs a single to bring Mustafizur on strike. Another single and Shoriful Islam wraps up the innings with a maximum. Bangladesh finish at 256 for 8 in 50 overs.
India need 257 runs to win.
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Boundaries & Wicket
Brilliant running between the wickets from the batters to keep the scoreboard ticking. Wow! Mahmudullah notches another beautiful boundary on a Shardul Thakur delivery. Another maximum! Brilliant strokemaking, this! 15 runs come from the last Shardul Thakur over.
Siraj takes the ball for the 47th over and now Nasum is at work, scores a boundary to long-on to welcome Siraj with. Two balls later, he finds gap to steal yet another boundary. And on the next, loses his wicket as KL takes his catch behind the stumps.
Bangladesh 233/7 after 47 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Jadeja Takes a Blinder
Jadeja is back for his final over today. He's been brilliant with the ball, as always. Scalped two important wickets, maintained pressure and brought down the run rate. He finished his spell with 10-0-38-2.
It's Bumrah time now! Mushfiqur runs a single on his first delivery and with it 200 runs are up for Bangladesh. Woah! What a stunner from Jadeja. Proves once again why he's regarded as on of the best fielders in world cricket. Takes a diving catch to send Mushfiqur packing.
In the next over, Kuldeep concedes four runs.
Bangladesh 205/6 after 44 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: A Four & a Six from Mahmudullah
Mahmudullah played a beautiful shot to collect four runs in Siraj's over. Other than that, just a single came in the 39th over. Next, it was Jadeja's turn and he finished it with leaking just 3 runs. Woah! A gigantic six from Mahmudullah's bat. He picked up the length, stepped forward and dispatched the ball over mid-wicket to collect half-a-dozen. This was 5th maximum from Bangladesh today.
Bangladesh 198/5 after 41 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Another Wicket
Pace is back into the attack and India have removed another Bangladesh batter. This time, Shardul Thakur takes the wicket.

Bangladesh 181/5 after 38 overs

Jasprit Bumrah was brought back into the attack in the 34th over. He conceded just 3 off of it. Kuldeep in the next over leaked just one. And now after 3 boundary-less overs, Mushfiqur finally scores a four for Bangladesh in the next Bumrah over. The duo at crease are rebuilding now.
Bangladesh 178/4 after 37 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Runs Have Dried Up
After suffering back to back blows, runs have dried up for Bangladesh. With the fiery start from the opening duo 350 looked achievable but now it seems far-fetched. The Indian bowling attack, especially the spinners are getting the better of the batters here in Pune.
Bangladesh 164/4 after 34 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: 1000 For Mushfiqur Rahim
Veteran batter Mushfiqur Rahim, who was also a part of the Tigers back in their 2007 World Cup campaign has come in to hold the fort for the side. Another appeal from Jadeja for LBW.

Bangladesh 149/4 after 31 overs
India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Hridoy Walks In, Jadeja Strikes Again
Towhid Hridoy is in at 5 for Bangladesh. He's left most of the balls he's faced so far, taking time to get accustomed to the wicket and the Indian bowling attack.

Bangladesh 82/0 after 13 overs

India vs Bangladesh Live Score: Pandya Leaves Field
Hardik Pandya in a bit of trouble out in the middle. Bowls three deliveries of the ninth over, and is hit for two boundaries by Litton, before he limps and calls for the physio. Looks like he's twisted his left ankle but some replays also look like he's in pain when he puts pressure on his left knee.
The physio's strapped his left ankle and Hardik picks the ball to reach his mark, but he's limping. TV cameras show Rohit have a quick chat with Virat as well as Hardik elects to go off the field.
3 balls remaining in the over. Virat Kohli will finish it off.
