11:42 Local Time, 03:42 GMT, 09:12 IST: India have steamrolled Bangladesh and have ensured a medal for themselves. They're into the gold medal contest and will await the winner of the Pakistan-Afghanistan contest later on in the day. On the other hand, the best Bangladesh can now hope is a bronze medal. India lost Jaiswal in the first over for a duck, but that was as good as it got for the bowlers. Ruturaj started with a couple of majestic sixes and Tilak followed suit, flaying the bowling to all parts of the ground. The 50 was up by the 4th over and the match was all but over as a contest. India started the tournament as one of the favourites and this performance could well spur them on for a gold medal. So that's it for this match but we'll be back shortly for the second semis at this very venue. Do join us for all the action. For now, cheers and bye..
