Tigers taste defeat on Mahmudullah's last T20I

Opener Sanju Samson hammered a century as India batters made several records to maul Bangladesh by 133 runs in the third and final Twenty20 of the series in Hyderabad on Saturday (Oct 12).

India compiled a hefty 297-6 which is the second highest total in the T20 Internationals and highest against a Test nation. It is India's highest total in their history.

Compared to the last two matches, the Tigers fared little better as they put up 164-7 while chasing the improbable target with Towhid Hriody battling lonely to hit 42 ball-63 not out.

The 133-run defeat, however, is Bangladesh's largest margin defeat in this format.

The defeat came in the match which is the last T20 game of Mahmudullah Riyad, the last member of Bangladesh's 'Fab 5'.

Having won the game, India swept the three-match T20 series too after whitewashing the visitors  in Test series.
