Nidahas Trophy 2018: Twitter Reacts as India 176/3 post against Bangladesh

India posted 176/3 in their quota of 20 overs after they were asked to bat first by the Bangladeshi captain in the fifth match of the Nidahas Trophy 2018. Both the teams made one change each in their side.

Bangladesh brought Abu Hider in place of Taskin Ahmed while India brought in Mohammed Siraj also came in the playing XI in place of Jaydev Unadkat.

India started brilliantly as both the openers were involved in a 70 runs partnership. Rohit Sharma finally came back to form as he scored yet another T20I half century. Shikhar Dhawan scored 35 runs but was dismissed by Rubel Hossain.

Suresh Raina also looked in fine touch as he came in at the number three position. Raina’s fine run with the bat in the series and scored 47 runs

However, the star with the bat for India was Rohit Sharma who scored 89 off just 60 deliveries.

For Bangladesh, all the bowler’s struggled throughout the innings as they could only manage to pick up just one Indian wicket. Mehidy Hasan was the most expensive bowler from Bangladesh as he gave away 31 runs in three overs.

Here is how Twitter reacted:

Haters won't believe but Rohit was out of form for last few weeks because he was tensed about not being able to link his Aadhar card with bank account before 31st March. #IndvBan

90-2 better than 70-0 any day in first 10 overs. Poor batting from Rohit. #INDvBAN

With his 89 today, I suspect @ImRo45 (Rohit Sharma) has become the first Indian opener to bat through the entire 20 overs in a T20I.#INDvBAN #NidahasTrophy

If this done today means bangladesh first victory against india in t20i.#BANvIND #INDvBAN #NidahasTrophy #NidahasTrophy2018 #NidahasOnDSport pic.twitter.com/nm3OvCHMO5
