Chasing the simplest of targets, Bangladesh A survived a brief scare when Yasir Ali was dismissed first ball off Suyash Sharma. However, a wide delivered by the bowler ensured Bangladesh A reached the required 1 run, sealing the victory at 1/1 and completing a memorable win.
Earlier in regulation play, after being sent in to bat, Bangladesh A produced a strong total built around opener Habibur Rahman Sohan, who played a commanding knock of 65 off 46 deliveries, hitting 3 fours and 5 sixes.

Though wickets fell at intervals, including Zawad Abrar (13), captain Akbar Ali (9), and Abu Hider for a duck, the innings regained momentum through a stunning late assault from SM Meherob. The left-hander blasted 48 off just 18 balls, smashing six towering sixes and providing the perfect finish.
Yasir Ali added a valuable unbeaten 17 off 9, guiding Bangladesh A to a competitive 194/6.

Despite regular wickets, India A stayed in the hunt through Jitesh Sharma (33 off 23) and Nehal Wadhera, who held the innings together with an unbeaten 32 off 29. Ramandeep Singh (17 off 11) and Ashutosh Sharma (13 off 6) added crucial late runs to bring the equation down to the final overs.
