Rohit Sharma was leading the team as Kohli is rested. India lost the toss and was invited to bat first. Batting first India posted 148 and gave a target of 149 to Bangladesh. The Tigers achieved the target with three balls to spare and 7 seven in hands.

Rohit Sharma intentionally lost the match so that Indians don’t burst residual crackers from Diwali on Indian victory and contribute to already prevailing #DelhiAirEmergency.
Cricketer Rohit Sharma might’ve lost, Environmentalist Rohit Sharma won. What a man! Salute! #IndvsBan.

Pollution level Alarming, breathlessness all over Delhi.
And still 40 thousand attendance in Kotla.
Surely Cricket is the biggest thing in India.#IndvsBan
