5 Things That Turned the Fate of the Bangladesh v India 1st ODI: Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Bangladeshi line up simply outplayed the Indians on all possible aspects of the game in the first ODI. The Indian pacers did not manage to pull off the best in the game and they conceded way too many runs.

Bangladesh showed their intensified dominance right from the start with an ignited centurion partnership. Finally, with the aid of a sensational cameo partnership between Shakib and Sabbir Rahman Bangladesh posed a threatening total of 307 runs on the board. Indian opening pair did provide them the desired start but the middle order weakness of the Men In Blue got badly exposed yet again, leading Bangladesh to clinch a comprehensive victory.

To make an anatomy of the crunches and spices of the match, let us go through the 5 Things That Turned the Fate of the Bangladesh v India 1st ODI.

1. Centurion Opening Partnership:

The opening partnership between Soumya Sarkar and Tamim Iqbal contributed a total of 102 runs for the first wicket when Sarkar was dismissed run out by Suresh Raina. They scored the runs with rapid pace and had reached to 100 runs in just 79 deliveries.
