India and Bangladesh are set to face each other in the Semifinal 1 of the Asian Games Men’s T20I 2023. The Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou will play host to this clash on Friday, October 6.
India, led by Ruturaj Gaikwad, survived a massive scare against Rohit Paudel’s Nepal in the quarterfinals, where they ended up winning the match by 23 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a century in 48 balls, helping the Men in Blue post 202 for four on the board. Rinku Singh chipped in with a handy cameo of 37 runs off 15 balls with two fours and a six.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, beat Malaysia by two runs in the quarterfinal. After opting to bat first, they were reduced to 3/3 in 1.5 overs. Saif Hassan scored 50 to help Bangladesh to 116 for five in 20 overs.
The match went right down to the wire. In the end, Afif Hossain Dhrubo defended five runs in the last over. Virandeep Singh scored a gutsy half-century for Malaysia, but his valiant efforts went in vain.
