India scripted a scintillating victory against Bangladesh on Thursday at Edgbaston cricket ground, Birmingham in their Champions Trophy semifinal match. Further, India also set up a thrilling summit clash with arch-rivals Pakistan on Sunday.
Rohit Sharma notched up his 11th ODI century (123* off 129), while Virat Kohli scored an unbeaten 96 off 78 balls as India crushed Bangladesh by 9 wickets. The lazy elegance of Rohit (123 no off 129 balls) coupled with the unmatched swagger of skipper Kohli (96 no off 78 balls) ensured India treat Bangladesh’s attack with utter disdain, knocking off a modest target of 265 in 40.1 overs.
