IND w vs BAN w 2nd T20I Highlights: India beat Bangladesh by 8 runs, seal series win

India have wrapped up the series win by taking a 2-0 lead. It was four wickets in the end for India in the last over and Bangladesh were all out for 87. Three of those belonged to Shafali Verma and so she has ended up being India's highest run scorer and joint highest wicket taker today. India have defended a target of 96 and sealed the series win at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium. 

Bangladesh need 9 to win off 3 and this seems to be going India's way now. Shafali is bowling the last over, runs out Rabeya Khan off the first ball and then Nahida Akter holes out at long-on off the next. A dot ball follows and it moves further away from Bangladesh. 

Yastika Bhatia throws the ball in disgust, she had missed a run out chance off the previous ball itself but India get the big wicket after all. Bangladesh need 10 to win off the last 7 balls. 

Sultana st Bhatia b Sharma 38 (55), Bangladesh 86/6 in 18.5 overs

Harleen has dropped a dolly and Sultana, who is pretty much the life of Bangladesh's chase, has got a chance here. Bangladesh 82/5 in 18 overs, need 14 to win off 12. 

Sultana goes inside out, mid off and cover are inside and the ball takes one bounce before crossing the boundary. Bangladesh need 15 to win off 14. 

Nigar Sultana's 25 off 39 balls has given Bangladesh an impetus in this chase. She is still there and they need 30 to win off the last six.

Deepti wrong footed at first as she followed the shot first in her follow through. She spots the edge and dives to her left to catch it.

Shorna Akter c & b Sharma 7 (17), Bangladesh 64/5 in 14.2 overs

Shafali Verma bowling the 13th, she fires the first one full around off. Nigar Sultana does well to get inside the line of the ball and send it through short fine leg.

India have used Bangladesh's tactic to great success here, the spinners have squeezed the life force out of the batters today. Can they hold on to seal a series win as well?

Full on off, Ritu Moni is beaten and is trapped plumb in front. Minu Mani and Anusha Bareddy, the two young spinners, are pulling off quite a heist for India here. 

Bangladesh just cannot get a partnership going. Even a minor one would be enough for them to seal victory here. Pitched full outside off, Murshida tries to clobber it on the on side, misses it and loses her off stump. 

Khatun b Anusha 4 (15), Bangladesh 23/3 in 6.3 overs

Well this run rate is enough for Bangladesh to chase this down but India will be happy with this situation as well. It has been anything but an easy stay for any of the Bangladesh batters today. 

EDGED AND GONE! Fantastic reflex catch there by Harmanpreet, whose decision to introduce spin from both ends seems to be paying off. Well, well, well, is spin such a batter's kryptonite on this pitch? Had the tables, in fact, not been turned in Bangladesh's favour after all? 

Rani c Harmanpreet b Deepti 5 (6), Bangladesh 12/2 in 2.3 overs

Shobhana Mostary can no longer take part in the match after sustaining the injury while she had taken that catch in the last over of the Indian innings.

Second ball of the second, Shamima looks to sweep and gets a top edge. That's the early wicket India were searching for. 

Shamima Sultana c Shafali Verma b Mani 5 (4), Bangladesh 10/1 in 1.2 overs

Vastrakar starts with a short one at the stumps. Shamima pulls to fine for a boundary.

Shamima Sultana is facing up to Pooja Vastrakar with Shathi Rani at the other end.

Wow, what a mountain the Indian bowlers have to climb here. The 20th over was in fact a rare one that went for over 10 runs with Minnu Mani and Pooja Vastrakar hitting boundaries. If Bangladesh can chase this down quickly and not let India stage a fightback, which is very much on the cards considering the strength of their bowling lineup, this will truly be a historic day in the history of women's cricket in the country. 

But this time the fielder has hurt herself. Amanjot looks to go over mid-off, Mostary is there, jumps up and takes a one-hander in the air but lands awkwardly on the back of her head. She walks of clutching the her neck.

Amanjot Kaur c Mostary b Marufa Akter 14 (17), India 84/8 in 19.1 overs

Deepti had hit a four off the first ball of the 19th. Looked for more but she has ended up playing the kind of shot that fielding coaches play when giving catching practice to players. Lofts a dolly to short fine leg.

Deepti Sharma c Shamima Sultana b Fahima Khatun 10 (14), India 82/7 in 18.4 overs

Well to quote the meme, how the turntables, eh? One side looked totally out of sea in the first match and the same can be said about the second. However, while it was Bangladesh who were wiped in the first, India's batting lineup at least has been given a proper reality check here. 

Third wicket for Sultana Khatun, Harleen has hit it straight into the hands of mid-on. After Jemimah's slow burner, it is now Harleen's version that ends, she has fall for a 21-ball six.

Harleen Deol c Rabeya Khan b Sultana Khatun 6 (21), India 61/6 in 14.3 overs

Jemimah suckered into the big shot, misses it entirely and Nigar Sultana does the rest with the stumping. Jemimah has fallen for a 21-ball eigth in a T20 match and India are in all sorts now. 

Rodrigues st Nigar Sultana b Rabeya Khan 8 (21), India 58/5 in 13.1 overs

Harleen Deol hits the 3rd ball of the 13th to the left of mid-on, Marufa dives and it seems to have fallen just short of her. But then there is a run out chance, Marufa manages a direct throw and there is a referral to run out. Replays show that Deol was saved by her dive. Bangladesh have been brilliant in the field today.
