Bangladesh's batting crumbled under pressure, as they were bowled out for a mere 146 in their second innings. India chased down the target in 17.2 overs, securing a 95-run victory.

Former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar criticized Bangladesh's batting, questioning their shot selection and lack of patience. Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusinghe admitted that his team was overwhelmed by India's aggressive approach, which they had not encountered before.

Despite the defeat, Hathurusinghe praised the quality of the opposition and the lessons learned from the series. He believes that playing against India has highlighted the areas where Bangladesh needs to improve.
