IND vs BAN highlights, ACC Men's Asia Cup Rising Stars Semi Final: Heartbreak for India A as Bangladesh win Super Over to reach final

IND vs BAN highlights, ACC Men's Asia Cup Rising Stars Semi Final: India’s campaign in the Emerging Asia Cup came to a heartbreaking end as they lost a dramatic Super Over to Bangladesh in the semifinal. After a high-pressure finish that saw the scores level at the end of 20 overs, the match moved into a tense tiebreaker—but India’s decisions at the start raised eyebrows.

Surprisingly, India did not send the in-form Vaibhav Suryavanshi for the Super Over. Instead, Jitesh Sharma and Ramandeep Singh walked out to bat. The move backfired instantly as Ripon delivered a perfect yorker to dismiss Jitesh. Ashutosh followed next ball, leaving India with just a single run on the board—far below par in such a crunch situation.

Bangladesh’s chase in the Super Over did not begin smoothly either. Yasir Ali holed out to long-on, bringing unexpected tension back into the contest. But the game ended in dramatic fashion when Suyash Sharma bowled a googly down the leg side. Akbar Ali had shuffled across and left his stumps exposed, but Jitesh missed the stumping chance. The umpire signaled a wide, giving Bangladesh the one run they needed to win.

Despite multiple dropped catches and nervy moments—especially from Akbar Ali—Bangladesh survived, thanks largely to Ripon’s brilliance. Raqibul’s disciplined spell in the main match also proved crucial. A scarcely believable finish sent Bangladesh into the final and left India stunned and eliminated.
