The quarter-final that had created so much interest turned out to be a rather one-sided contest with Bangladesh starting off well but never managing to tighten the noose. They were unfortunate with the Rohit Sharma no-ball call, but it would have hardly mattered in hindsight.

Ashwin and Umesh were excellent for India with the ball. Although the former did not have anything to show in the wickets column, he was exceptional with his control and gave little away in his 10 over spell that went for just 30.

Umesh, meanwhile, picked up the key wickets of Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim and Sabbir Rahman to finish with 4/31. India progressed to the semi-finals where they would go on to lose to eventual champions and hosts, Australia.
