Scorer: K Vairavan | Commentator: Madushka Balasuriya
And on that note it's a wrap from us. The result makes it two wins in two for India, and two hard fought wins at that. The games keep coming thick and fast with New Zealand set for their first taste tomorrow, while England, Afghanistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe and USA will also be action. But until then, on behalf of Himanshu and the rest of the team, this is Madushka signing out!
Ayush Mhatre: "The way Kundu and Vaibhav batted was really brilliant. Even Kanishk batted brilliantly in the end. There was a little dampness on the wicket. The ball was sticking on the wicket from back of the length. It was difficult. There was a simple discussion: the break was on our side because there was some momentum for Bangladesh... Boys were confident we could defend the total. The batsmen doesn't expect a part-timer to come in this situation [and hence giving the ball to Malhotra]. I'm pretty confident in his skills."
Azizul Hakim: "Disappointing for us... missed chances. DLS came into play. For us, it's about learning. Very proud of Al Fahad. Looking forward to the next match. [When did it go wrong?] When I took that shot! This game is like a learning for me. I just gave my best, but unfortunately, they took the catch. India is a very good team."
Nagraj Todur: "Vihan deserve MoM!! Wickets and fantastic catch to end the match!!"
Shadow-Shell: "Pressure? What pressure? Indian boys showing how it's done, done, done. With crucial assist from Mother Nature"
Player of the Match goes to Vihaan Malhotra for his match-winning figures of 4 for 14: "It's nerve wracking, but being on the winning side is great. The discussion [after the rain interruption] was positive and it was about instilling in us that we can do anything. [approach?] The plan was to limit boundaries at the end, and I backed my strength of bowling yorkers at the end. I backed my skill that I could defend this score, and just believe in God. Playing a game like this, we chose cricket to play in games like this, and it's a great opportunity to be in one."
6.30pm Well. There was a point where it seemed like we might not even get a complete game after two substantial rain interruptions, and a third threatening. But all that did was heighten the tension as Bangladesh looked to hunt down a revised target of 165 off 29 overs, trying to balance their required rate while also keeping an eye on the DLS par score. They were keeping up with proceedings as captain Azizul Hakim was going strong, but then entered Vihaan Malhotra, who had a gamechanging turn, taking 4 for 14, including a phenomenal catch to seal the game. India as a whole fielded excellently, and ultimately held their nerves the best.
Iqbal Hossain Emon c Malhotra b Henil Patel 2 (9m 6b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33
Only boundaries will do from here.
Henil to bowl the last over
So we've found our way to the final over. 19 needed off 6. Bangladesh need close to a miracle now, with numbers 10 and 11 at the crease.
END OF OVER:28 | 3 Runs 2 Wkts | BAN19: 146/9 (19 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 5.21, RRR: 19.00)

Brief check to see if the keeper's gloves were behind the wickets as the ball was struck on that wicket. All good. Last batter now walks out to the middle, India now well in control.
