Rohit Sharma, who is widely expected to replace Kohli as skipper in the shortest format, led the way in the chase with 56 from 37 balls in an opening stand of KL Rahul, who took over after his partner's dismissal and accelerated to finish unbeaten on 54 from 36 balls. The Dutchman took two of the next three to stay within touching distance, but he was having to dig deep with "We've got Lily-May coming over from Australia as well, and it's always great to have new ideas and new perspectives. That's could be what gets the squad over the line." Bangladesh simply had no answer to the pace and hostility of Rabada and his Delhi Capitals team-mate Nortje, who delivered a ferocious bouncer to account for Mahmudullah (3) as wickets continued to tumble.
