Bangladesh defeated mighty India by 5 wickets in Asia Cup
cricket match at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket
Stadium in Mirpur on Friday.Skipper Mushfiqur Rahim (46
not out) and Nasir Hossain (54) scripted the incredible
result after the pair smashed 64 runs for the fifth wicket
as the Tigers reached the stiff target with four balls to
spare. Vice-captain Mahmudullah brought up the winning run
with a four. Earlier, India scored 289 for 5 in 50 overs
with the help of a vigilant 100th ton from the master
blaster Sachin Tendulkar, as they were invited to bat
first by the home skipper Mushfiqur Rahim. The 38-year-old
master batsman, who completed the landmark in the 44th
over with a single off the fourth ball of Shakib Al
Hasan's over, needed 138 balls to achieve it. During his
147-ball knock, Tendulkar struck 12 overs and a six before
being caught behind. Suresh Raina made 51. Together they
added 86 runs for the third wicket.
Mashrafe Bin Mortaza ended his stay having him caught behind by wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim towards the end of the 46th over. Bangladesh were 84 for one after 20 overs chasing 290 for victory against India in the Asia Cup on Friday. Tamim Iqbal (42) was batting with Jahurul Islam (34) at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
The pair have so far put on 69 runs after the fall of opener Nazimuddin.
Nazimuddin (5) sent the ball straight up in an attempt to pull off Praveen Kumar which landed safely into the hands of Rohit Sharma at short extra cover.

Rohit Sharma (4) suffered a run out after a mixing with Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Bangladesh, who won the toss, had an initial success when Gautam Gambhir (11) inside-edged a wide Shafiul Islam delivery on his stumps to give the home side a cause to celebrate. An inside edge flatter delivery from Abdur Razzak sent back Virat Kohli hitting the leg stump. Kohli reached 66 using five fours. A victory for India will more or less seal their spot in the finals and virtually knock Bangladesh out of the tournament.
