1.35pm Islam, fittingly, leads the Bangladesh players off the field. He bowled an intense spell with the new ball and then returned to spark a collapse of 7 for 21. Sakib and Das, too, bowled aggressive spells and pushed India back further. Jaiswal fought his way to 88 before his wicket added to the collapse. Bangladesh need 178 to win their maiden global title at any level. Be back soon.

Elsewhere, from becoming the first Indian male player to win four Superseries titles in a calendar year in 2017, the fairy tale suddenly went poof for Kidambi Srikanth. Now, Srikanth is battling time and fate in the race for Tokyo.

Vedant Shah: "We gotta give credit to Bangladesh, they really did well in bowling, India started really well but I really think that their middle order was not used much this tournament so that could have been a factor. Anyways, India's bowling has been really strong, so it's India time to strike Bangladesh."
