India secures semis spot
Print Edition
ROHIT Sharma stroked an authoritative century and Umesh Yadav claimed four wickets to help defending champion India advance to the World Cup semifinals with a 109-run win over Bangladesh yesterday.
Sharma scored 137 off just 126 balls with 14 boundaries and three sixes, sharing a 122 -run fourth-wicket partnership with Suresh Raina (65) to help India reach 302-6 after some tight Bangladesh bowling contained much of the innings.
Bangladesh produced a determined innings in its first World Cup quarterfinal. Tamim Iqbal timed four boundaries in a run-a-ball 25 before being caught behind off Yadav (4-31). Fellow opener Imran Kayes was run out off the next ball for 5 and Bangladesh didn’t recover momentum.
Sarkar and Mahmudullah steadied the innings in a 40-run partnership until Mahmudullah was caught on the boundary rope by Dhawan for 21.
India’s captain M.S.Dhoni became just the third captain, and the first Indian, to lead his country to 100 ODI wins, joining the Australian pair of Ricky Ponting and Allan Border.
