Sanju Samson and Suryakumar Yadav smashed the ball all over the park as India managed to score 82 runs from the first six overs – the same score they had managed against Scotland back in 2021.
Highest Powerplay scores for India in T20Is
- 82/1 vs Bangladesh, Hyderabad, 2024
- 82/2 vs Scotland, Dubai, 2021
- 78/2 vs South Africa, Johannesburg, 2018
- 77/1 vs Australia, Thiruvananthapuram, 2023

Earlier, India won the toss and elected to bat first as leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi came in for left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh. Fast-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana was not considered for selection as he was unavailable due to a viral infection and did not travel with the Indian team to the stadium.
India have already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, and a win on Saturday will help them get a clean sweep over Bangladesh, who also lost the preceding Test series 2-0.
