India’s T20 cricket team, under the leadership of head coach Gautam Gambhir, delivered a sensational performance, sweeping Bangladesh 3-0 in a thrilling series. The final match saw the Men in Blue post a staggering 297/6, led by Sanju Samson’s explosive century and strong contributions from Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya. Bangladesh, despite their efforts, could only manage 164/7 in response, suffering a massive 133-run defeat—their heaviest loss to India in T20 history.
Gautam Gambhir’s reaction? A simple, yet powerful 4-word tweet: “A tour de force!” which quickly set social media buzzing. The tweet, along with a picture of the victorious Indian team holding the trophy, captured the spirit of India’s dominant display.
Samson’s 111 off just 47 balls, combined with Suryakumar’s quickfire 75 off 35, set India on course for one of the highest totals in T20 history. This outstanding partnership of 173 runs in just 70 balls propelled India to their highest T20 total and the second-highest total in international T20 cricket. Though Bangladesh made early breakthroughs, they couldn’t contain India’s explosive batting lineup.
Bangladesh’s bowling struggled to keep up with the relentless attack, with Tanzim Hasan Sakib taking 3 wickets but conceding 66 runs. Litton Das and Towhid Hridoy tried to anchor the chase, but Bangladesh couldn’t recover after crucial wickets fell.
India’s bowling, led by Ravi Bishnoi’s impressive 3/30, sealed the victory, leaving the opposition with no chance of chasing the daunting target. With this win, India not only secured the series but also showcased their firepower heading into future T20 challenges.
The buzz surrounding Gambhir’s tweet and India’s remarkable performance has made headlines, reaffirming their dominance in the T20 format.
