India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Bangladesh in all kinds of trouble. Half of the number of overs designated for them to bat is done and so is half their side.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: It looks like Jaker Ali knew as much about that ball as we have right now of a comet set to hit the Earth in the next 5 minutes and end all of humanity. Both of which amounts to zero. He leans forward to defend, the ball turns in through the gap between bat and body and hits the stumps.

Jaker Ali b Varun 8 (6)

Bangladesh 56/4 in 9.2 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: A good shot from Jaker Ali to end Reddy's maiden international over. 11 runs off it. Jaker is on eight off five, Shanto on 22 off 18.

Bangladesh 56/4 in 9 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: The Mayank Yadav show has officially made its international debut. He has figures of 1/3 in 2 overs. He hit 150kph for the third ball, the first that Jaker Ali faced and it was played to deep third for a single. Then Mayank brings the pace crashing down next ball, Shanto does well to pick it up and drive to cover for a single. Sharp bouncer at 143kph fifth ball that Jaker Ali ducks out of and then another mean short quickie at 140kph and the batter sways away. Another debutant to bowl his first over now, Nitish Kumar Reddy to bowl the ninth.

Bangladesh 45/4 in 8 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: His figures for now stand at 1/1 in seven balls. He starts his second over with a 149kph scorcher, Shanto pushes it to mid-on for a single. Then Mahmudullah decides to give the youngster the charge and perishes. He reaches out and toe-ends it to deep point. Mayank Yadav has his maiden international wicket. First of hundreds?

Mahmudullah c Washington Sundar b Mayank 1 (2)

Bangladesh 43/3 in 7.2 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Hridoy is one of the more exciting batters in this Bangladesh lineup but this has been a struggle for him. He stays back to pull the third ball of the seventh, puts it straight down the throat of Hardik Pandya at long-on.

Hridoy c Pandya b Varun 12 (18)

Bangladesh 42/3 in 7 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Well, it wasn't the breakneck speed that we saw last year in the IPL, but the accuracy was right up there. There were a couple of deliveries that went over 145kph as well and so Mayank Yadav starts off his international career with a maiden in a T20I match. Extraordinary stuff.

Bangladesh 39/2 in 6 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: All right, dust off your speed guns because Mayank Yadav has the ball in his hands. Hridoy got another four right after that misfield with Chakravarthy firing one on to the batter's pads next ball. Hridoy gets off strike fourth ball, then a dot ball and then Shanto reverse-sweeps the last ball for a flat six. The Bangladesh captain is on 14 off nine, Hridoy on 12 off 10.

Bangladesh 39/2 in 5 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Hridoy gets a second life, he hits it straight to Reddy at square leg second ball of the fifth and somehow, the ball goes right through his hands and between his legs, the ball goes to the boundary behind him.

Bangladesh 28/2 in 4.2 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Pandya digs in the first ball of the fourth but it stays low, Shanto pulls it in the air just past midwicket for a four. Just four more runs in the rest of the over. Hridoy has scored three in six, Shanto on eight off seven. Now Chakravarthy to bowl the first over of spin.

Bangladesh 24/2 in 4 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Emon swings hard and chops on! Short of a length from Arshdeep, not too wide and so Emon is cramped up for room as he looks to smash the ball into smithereens. Arshdeep has dismissed both Bangladesh openers.

Emon b Arshdeep Singh 8 (9)

Bangladesh 14/2 in 2.1 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: So Mayank is not taking the new ball. A risky single off the last ball of that over from Arshdeep. Both Emon and Shanto on a run. Hardik Pandya for the second over now.

Bangladesh 6/1 in 1 over

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: A nothing shot from Litton, Bangladesh were desperate to get some kind of a boundary in the first over and Arshdeep Singh strikes in the first over. Premeditated hoick from Litton, the angle by Arshdeep takes the ball away from the batter. Bottom edge and the ball goes high into the night sky. Three Indian fielders converge but good communication between them, two of them let it go and Rinku takes the straightforward catch.

Das c Rinku b Arshdeep Singh 4 (2)

Bangladesh 5/1 in 0.5 overs

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Arshdeep Singh steaming in, Parvez Hossain Emon on strike with Litton Das at the other end.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: First comes Bangladesh's "Amar Sonar Bangla", followed by India's "Jana Gana Mana". Both written by Rabindranath Tagore.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: The spinner became a bit of a scapegoat in India's disastrous 2021 T20 World Cup campaign. He has since performed as well as ever in the IPL and is now back in the national side.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Three seamers and two spinners for Bangladesh, with Najmul Hossain Shanto saying that he would've loved to bowl first as well.

Bangladesh XI: Litton Das(w), Najmul Hossain Shanto(c), Parvez Hossain Emon, Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: We already know that Nitish and Mayank are making their debut. A bit of a surprise that Bishnoi is not there considering he is clearly right up there in the pecking order for India. Two fast bowling all-rounders today for India in Reddy and Pandya.

India XI: Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson(w), Suryakumar Yadav(c), Nitish Reddy, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Varun Chakravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Mayank Yadav

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: All right Ravi Shastri has done his thing, Suryakumar Yadav wins the coin toss and India bowl first. Early look at Mayank Yadav coming up!

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Abhinav Mukund says that the square boundaries and 64m and 65m. Looks like a typical central Indian wicket and it is a black soil surface but it is laid in with grass on top. The grass looks quite dry. The pitch itself looks quite firm. There is no sample size because this is the first international game being played here. The local T20 league that happened a couple of months ago - there were lots of runs on offer. Teams were scoring above 200 and that's what you'd think when you look at this surface. Lots of fours and sixes. In those 12 games, teams batting second won 8 out of the 12. No dew.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: There it is! We will see Mayank today. And we will also see Nitish Kumar Reddy, who has been such an exciting talent as a fast bowling all-rounder.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: The last time international cricket was played in Gwalior, Sachin Tendulkar broke a glass ceiling in men's ODI cricket. He scored an unbeaten 200 off 147 balls against South Africa. That was the last of the 12 ODIs that were played at the Captain Roop Singh Stadium between 1988 and 2010. That venue has since faded away but this game is being played at the brand new Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Hardik Pandya's bowling numbers have shown a sharp improvement since May this year. He's picked 18 wickets in 14 matches in the period as compared to only six in the 10 matches from January to April this year. India would be keen to use him as a third pacer and his cutters could come in handy on a pretty untested playing surface.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: He is probably an all-time great in the IPL now and there can be no doubting his talent. And yet, Sanju Samson hasn't had too much luck in international cricket. Samson made his debut all the way back in 2015 and in the nine years since, he has played 30 T20Is and 16 ODIs. Samson is a regular in the Ranji Trophy and yet, has never come close to making his Test debut. He is the subject of many conspiracy theories whenever he gets dropped, particularly fuelled by Malayalis, especially with a precious few cricketers from Kerala actually managing to play international cricket over the years. However, a look at Samson's numbers tells you a story of a player who has in fact been picked simply because of burgeoning talent and not because of his records. In his nine-year career in international cricket, Samson has scored 444 runs in 30 T20Is at an underwhelming average of 19.30.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Just from a cricketing perspective, this series might feel like a non-event, unlike the Test series that preceded it. There is no T20 World Cup anywhere in the vicinity and this is why India have chosen to rest almost half of their T20 regulars. However, it is series like these that all those stars who shine in the IPL and domestic cricket get to show what they can do in international cricket. A number of stars have come up over the years after playing a series like this one. For the likes of Harshit Rana, Abhishek Sharma, Mayank Yadav and Nitish Kumar Reddy, this series is as important as any they have ever played or will play in their careers.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: India are the reigning T20 World Cup champions and they have a recent record that does justice to that tag. They have won 18 of the 19 T20Is in 2024 (including two Super Over wins) and are currently on a seven-match winning streak

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: The big-hitting all-rounder sustained a back injury after India's final practice session in Gwalior. This means that Nitish Kumar Reddy could make his debut today.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Reports suggest that Harshit Rana could be making his international debut as Mayank didn't train much in the lead up to this match. Suryakumar Yadav did mention the importance of managing Mayank, maybe the management still doesn't think he is ready.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: That Mayank Yadav could be India's next big world beating paceman is without a doubt. Whether he can be that or not is entirely dependent on whether he can put his injury problems to bed and as to how well he will be managed. There is the example of Australia captain Pat Cummins out there, with the pace superstar not playing more than a single Test match for the first six years of his career in order to deal with his brittle body. We now know just how much of a workhorse he is in the format, having hardly missed any Test match in the last seven years. Whether India would be looking to get Mayank into international cricket with this series or not remains to be seen.

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Litton Das(w), Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto(c), Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Rishad Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Mahedi Hasan, Shoriful Islam, Rakibul Hasan, Parvez Hossain Emon

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson(w), Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Riyan Parag, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Mayank Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Jitesh Sharma, Varun Chakravarthy, Nitish Reddy, Harshit Rana

India vs Bangladesh 1st T20I Live Score: Batters are the centre of attaction in T20 cricket but today, most eyes are on an Indian bowler from the hosts' perspective. Mayank Yadav took the IPL by storm last year and then disappeared into the NCA to fix his injury-riddled body. He has now been named in the Indian team. Will he play today? Stay tuned for more updates...
