Sports: The Indian cricket team will target a clean sweep when they host Bangladesh in the third and last T20I game of the series in Hyderabad on Saturday, October 12.
India secured a series win with a dominant 86-run triumph in the last match in Delhi which also proved the biggest win in 16 T20I games played against Bangladesh. Nitish Reddy registered a quickfire fifty to help India post their first-ever 200+ total in T20Is against Bangladesh and then also shone with a ball to restrict the opponents to 135.
