That's that from us as well for today. Rahim gets the Man of the Match and deservingly so. He was smart today and determined to take Bangladesh to win. The visitors now ahead in the series 1-0. Two matches to go still, next one being on 7 November at Rajkot. India need to win both the matches to win the series. We will see you again on 7th. For now, take care and goodbye.

Mushfiqur Rahim, MoM: Nothing like playing an innings like that when we were playing in front of a huge crowd, and when the team needs it. Nothing like beating India in India, so this means a lot to me. Soumya and I had a chat, and we thought of dragging the game deep, and any of the quicks could have been targetted for 15-20 in an over because the spinners got a lot of assistance so it was hard to hit them. Nayim also played really well to start with. I'm trying my best to evolve as a cricketer, and I will try to perform in each and every game for Bangladesh.

Mahmudullah, Bangladesh captain: It was all based on how we start. All the bowlers chipped in. Good thing was out fielding, we fielded well, it gave us momentum going into batting. Captaincy was made easy because of the guys. Rahim deserves the credit, Sarkar and he held their nerves and batted well. It was a good match to win.

Rohit Sharma: Not to take credit away from Bangladesh. They played well and put us under pressure right from the start, they were pretty smart with the bat as well. It was a defendable total but we made mistakes on the pitch. The guys are a bit inexperienced, and they can learn from that, perhaps not make them the next time. It was a mistake (reviews) from our side to not talk about it. First we thought was going down leg and second we thought was high. We weren't upto the mark on the field, but batting-wise I think we put up a competitive score. Chahal was always welcomed into this format. He's crucial to this team, and he showed how important he is in the middle overs, when the batsmen are set. 

22:30 (IST)

Soumya Sarkar: We are very happy. Everyone was thinking positive. They gave their 100 percent. We knew if we give our best, we can beat India. We miss Shakib but we have to think positive and do well. 

22:28 (IST)

And it's over. What a way to finish off in style. Rahim exults with raised arms. Bangladesh lead 1-0. Who would have thought after a tumultuous time leading into this series. India were out batted and out bowled here, and have a lot to think in their lead-up to the World Cup. They are missing some key bowlers of course, but that batting line-up is not getting any better even if it was missing Virat Kohli.

India vs Bangladesh, LIVE Cricket Score, 1st T20I at Delhi Latest Updates: Bangladesh win by 7 wickets and Mahmudullah brings the victory in style, big six over long on. This is their first win in T20Is against India. Rahim screamed in ecstacy and why not, this win is special for all that has happened in past few weeks. Rahim played so well for his 60 off 43 balls.

Preview: The three-match T20I series between India and Bangladesh gets underway today in New Delhi with Rohit Sharma leading the hosts in the absence of Virat Kohli, who has been rested for the tournament. Bangladesh will also have a new captain in Mahmudullah Riyad with iconic all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan serving an ICC ban.

The T20I series presents another opportunity for India to try out youngsters as they aim to find their best players ahead of the 2020 T20 World Cup. India's bowling attack lacks established names and all eyes will be on the performances of youngsters Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur and Chahar brothers.

Another major concern for the hosts has been their brittle middle-order and stand-in skipper Rohit said that while it's tough to find a place in the formidable Indian side, youngsters must make most of the limited opportunities.

"When they (Indian youngsters) play for their IPL team it's different but when they come here, it is different ball game. They bat higher for their IPL franchise and that is the challenge in international cricket, you will not get, what you want," said Rohit.

"You have to earn that position and make sure whatever little opportunities you get, you have to make the most of it. In IPL they are guaranteed 15 games but not in international cricket."

Apart from the youngsters, veteran Shikhar Dhawan, who has struggled for form recently, would be aiming to find his touch back while KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Krunal Pandya and Rishabh Pant could seal their place in the Indian team with good performances.

The timing of a match in New Delhi post Diwali has also raised a lot of questions due to the worsening air pollution situation in the national capital. But Bangladesh skipper Mahmudullah said his team is completely focused on the match as pollution is not within their control.

"Actually, we had a chat about these conditions. It is not within our control. We are focussing much more on the match tomorrow and win this game," said Mahmudullah ahead of the T20 series-opener.
