      <title>Kishan double ton helps India crush Bangladesh by 227 runs</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30306526/kishan-double-ton-helps-india-crush-bangladesh-by-227-runs</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Opener Ishan Kishan hit the fastest-ever double century in one-day internationals in just 126 balls to set up a 227-run consolation win for India in the third match against Bangladesh on Saturday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The left-handed Kishan, who made the team in the absence of injured skipper Rohit Sharma, powered India to 409-8 with his 210 off 131 balls including 24 fours and 10 sixes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He and Virat Kohli, who made 113, put on 290 runs for the second wicket – the seventh-highest partnership in ODI history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bangladesh were bowled out for 182 in 34 overs but won the series 2-1 after their opening two victories in Dhaka.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;India’s 409 was their fourth-highest ODI score and the highest-ever total against Bangladesh by any team.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kishan raised his maiden ODI hundred with a four as he let out a scream, and kept up the charge to convert into a double ton off Mustafizur Rahman as he and Kohli danced in the field.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kishan is only the fourth Indian batsman to score an ODI double ton after Rohit – who has done so three times – Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;India lost Shikhar Dhawan for three in the fifth over after being invited to bat first, but Kishan hit back with a string of boundaries and took control of the innings with Kohli.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kohli was dropped on one by skipper Liton Das, who spilled an easy catch at short mid-wicket, and soon got into his groove but remained happy to play second fiddle to the attacking Kishan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kishan finally fell to a well-judged catch in the deep by Liton off Taskin Ahmed as he walked back to a standing ovation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Star batsman and former captain Kohli hit Ebadot Hossain for six to register his first ODI century since August 2019 off 85 balls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It took his century count in all three formats to 72, surpassing former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tendulkar remains top with 100 international tons in a stellar career that ended in 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;India lost quick wickets including stand-in skipper K.L. Rahul for eight and Kohli in the space of three balls, but Washington Sundar’s quickfire 37 led the visitors past 400.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In reply, Bangladesh kept losing wickets including Liton out for 29 and Mushfiqur Rahim bowled, for seven, by left-arm spinner Axar Patel.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shakib Al Hasan attempted to put up some resistance with his knock of 43 before left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav bowled him as Bangladesh lost half their side for 124.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The rest of the batting fell flat as pace bowler Shardul Thakur struck twice – including the key wickets of Afif Hossain and Mehidy Hasan Miraz – in the space of four balls across his two overs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thakur took three wickets while Axar and tearaway quick Umran Malik took two each.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The two teams will play two Tests with the series starting in Chittagong on December 14.&lt;/p&gt;
