RAJKOT (India): Skipper Rohit Sharma smashed 85 in his 100th Twenty20 international as India thrashed Bangladesh by eight wickets to level the series on Thursday.
Earlier, leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal claimed two key wickets in one over as the hosts restricted Bangladesh to 153 for six.
Sharma put on 118 runs with opening partner Shikhar Dhawan as India, who lost in Delhi, achieved their target of 154 in only 15.4 overs to make the three-match series 1-1.
The 32-year-old raced to his fifty in just 23 deliveries, reaching the milestone with his third six.
Chahal returned figures of 2-28 after the hosts elected to bowl first.
Bangladesh made a flying start with Liton Das and Mohammad Naim, the top scorer with 36, putting together 60 runs for the opening wicket in just 7.1 overs.
Liton benefited from a pair of reprieves including a stumping chance as a no-ball was called after wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant collected the ball in front of the stumps.
Liton was finally run out by a direct throw from Pant while trying to steal a single after missing a googly from Chahal.
Chahal then struck twice in his third over with the wickets of first-match hero Mushfiqur Rahim, for four, and Soumya Sarkar, for 30, as the tourists slipped to 103 for four.
