India Dominate Bangladesh with a 133-Run Win in 3rd T20I, Sweeping the Series Clean at 3-0
After choosing to bat, India tore down records like rotten twigs, scoring 297 for 6, and Bangladesh never really put up much of a fight, losing the third and final Twenty20 international match at 164/7. From then on, it was always a matter of the eventual margin of victory. India defeated a hapless Bangladesh 3-0 and won the series handily, thanks in large part to Sanju Samson 's exuberant maiden Twenty20 International century on Saturday.
In an explosive second wicket stand, Samson — who hit the fastest T20I century by an Indian after Rohit Sharma — and captain Suryakumar Yadav bluffed 173 runs, sending the hosts past multiple records. The total was India's highest in the shortest format and ranked second overall among all-time highest T20I team totals, behind Nepal's 314 and ahead of Afghanistan's 278/3.

India sealed the game's outcome in the first half with the highest-ever T20I total of 297/6 for any full member side. In acknowledged matches of the shortest format, it was also the second-highest total. After Mayank removed Pervez Hossain in the opening ball of Bangladesh 's innings, they found it difficult to gain momentum in the never-ending pursuit of 298 runs. The knocks by Towhid Hridoy and Litton Das remained far-off blips on the scoresheet because the visitors lacked the resources to even try a strong chase.
