Team India have a tough task at hand in the 3rd T20I against Bangladesh at Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. After winning the toss, Mahmudullah opted to bowl and invited India bat first. Bangladesh managed to make a great start to their innings as Shafiul Islam removed Rohit Sharma early for just two runs. Rohit went for a leg flick and missed the line completely. The ball crashed into the stumps after taking an inside edge off Rohit’s bat.

Rohit has been breaking a lot of T20I records recently. He is the most-capped Indian in T20I while also being the top-scoring batsmen in the format. But Rohit broke another record in the 3rd T20I and it was something that he would have liked to avoid.

India have also Shikhar Dhawan as Shafiul Islam took another wicket for the visitors. Dhawan was looking in good form in his innings and scored 19 runs off 16 balls before being dismissed by Shafiul.
