India vs Bangladesh Champions Trophy 2025 Live Score IND vs BAN (India national cricket team vs Bangladesh national cricket team):  Towhid Hridoy and Jaker Ali have stitched a nice partnership for the sixth wicket to rebuild Bangladesh after they found themselves in deep trouble at 35/5 at one stage.

India got rid of five Bangladeshi batters well inside the first 10 overs to take control of the contest. Mohammed Shami struck twice before Axar Patel took two in two in India’s opening match of Champions Trophy 2025. Rohit Sharma then dropped a simple catch at first slip to deny Axar the hat-trick.

Today’s Group A match is being held at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
