With his five-for, Mustifizur took 15 wickets in the ongoing ICC Men’s World Cup.
Indian opener Rohit Sharma hit his fourth century in the ongoing World Cup, giving his team a solid start. He was dropped on 7 by Tamim Iqbal.
Rohit is now the only second batsman after Sri Lanka’s Kumar Sangakkara to hit four centuries in a single edition of the World Cup.
The Indian batsman also topped the list of most runs scorer (544) of this World Cup surpassing David Warner (516).
Rohit and Lokesh Rahul added 180 runs in the first-wicket stand after Virat Kohli won the toss and opted to bat first.
Soumya Sarkar earned a breakthrough for the Tigers by removing Rohit for 104. He tried to play Soumya’s delivery through the cover and gave an easy catch to Liton Das.
Rubel Hossain then removed Lokesh for 77 off 92. Lokesh prodded to the wicketkeeper, and Mushfiqur Rahim did not miss the catch.
During the 39th over, Mustafizur Rahman struck twice to remove Kohli and Hardik Pandya in a span of three balls and put the Tigers back in the game.
However, Rishabh Pant was in the wicket to show some glimpses of what he can really do. The 21-year-old struck 48 off 41 with six fours and one six to help his side pass the 300-run mark for the fifth time in this World Cup.
Eventually, India ended up on 314 for nine wickets in 50 overs. They scored only 63 runs in the last 10 overs.
Mustafizur took five wickets for 59 runs, and became the second Bangladeshi after Shakib to register a five-wicket haul in the World Cup. Shakib, Rubel and Soumya took one wicket each.
Before coming to this match, Bangladesh played seven games and won three of them while the other one was washed out due to rain. The Tigers lost in the other three matches.
India, on the other hand, played seven matches so far and won five of them and lost against hosts England.
