IND vs BAN T20I: Dinesh Karthik's last ball six powers India to clinch Nidahas Trophy

India will look to clinch the title as they lock horns with Bangladesh in the finals of Nidahas Trophy 2018 at R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo on Sunday. 

India was the first team to qualify for the final of Nidahas Trophy 2018, even after losing the first match against the hosts Sri Lanka.

Bangladesh became the team to join Men in Blue after they defeated the Lankans in a thrilling contest between them.

India’s route to the final has been a pretty comfortable one, barring the defeat against the Lankans. Whereas, Bangladesh lost twice to India and defeated the hosts twice.

There have been plenty of celebrations, a lot of controversies, nail-biting ties, and some Bangladesh special ‘Nagin Dance’. Both the team have looked in decent touch in this series and this will be one cracker of a final.
