India destroyed Bangladeshs dreams of a famous win and put their semi-final bid back on track by taking three wickets off the final three balls of a pulsating World Twenty20 match in Bangalore. Bangladesh needed to score just two runs off three balls to inflict a second defeat in three matches on the hosts - a result that would have pushed India to the brink of elimination - and earn their first ever T20 win over India.But in a dramatic finish, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmadullah both holed out off Hardik Pandya before Mustafizur Rahman was run out attempting to complete a single that would have earned Bangladesh a Super Over, wicketkeeper MS Dhoni collecting the ball and sprinting to break the wicket.The result means India, who made 146-7, restricted their opponents to 145-9 and now sit second in Group 2 on four points behind New Zealand, who have already qualified for the last four.India made a measured start, scoring 27 off the first five overs before Rohit Sharma and Dhawan each struck Mustafizur for six.The seamer quickly made amends, deceiving Sharma with a slower ball and three runs later Shakib Al Hasan trapped Dhawan lbw with a quicker ball to make it 45-2.Virat Kohli looked good value to follow up his half-century against Pakistan with a second fifty as he shared a 50-run stand with Suresh Raina only to be bowled on the sweep by Shuvagata Hom.India slipped to 112-5 as Al-Amin Hossain struck twice in as many balls, Raina lofting a simple chance to Rahman at mid-wicket before Pandya (15) was caught one-handed by a diving Soumya Sarka on the deep square boundary.The task of bumping up the score fell to Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja, who contributed 13 off 12 balls and 12 off eight balls respectively.Tamim Iqbal, back in the side after illness, gave Bangladesh a strong start to their chase by flaying 35 off 32 balls at the top of the chase after Mohammad Mithun holed out to long on off Ravichandran Ashwin.The opener struck five fours as he added 44 for the second wicket with Sabbir Rahman before becoming Dhonis first victim of the innings, before advancing to be stumped after missing a mow across the line.If that stumping was smart, the next was opportunistic as Dhoni collected a Raina delivery down the leg-side and dislodged the bails at the moment Rahmans feet left the ground.Shakib Al Hasan pulls as MS Dhoni looks on Shakib Al Hasan, dropped on eight at deep cover by Ashwin, looked light he might take the game away from India quickly as he struck first Pandya and Jadeja into the stands but snicked a sharply-turning delivery to slip after Mashrafe Mortaza had his stumps rearranged by Jadeja.With 52 runs needed off 47 balls, the onus fell on Sarkar and Mahmudullah to maintain the charge and they did admirably, adding 31 runs in 5.4 overs.The pair took Bangladesh to within 21 of victory before Sarkar struck a Nehra full toss down the ground to Kohli but even then the odds were against the hosts as Pandya began the final over knowing 11 runs would spell defeat.Mushfiqur Rahim cut for four, then scooped another boundary past Dhoni to give Bangladesh a clear advantage but then fell to hand India the opportunity of a spectacular comeback victory.Watch highlights of India against Afghanistan at 10pm on Sky Sports 2.

After all, his U.S. Open title gives him three Grand Slam trophies, the same total as Murray, and each one came via a victory in the final against the man ranked No. 1 at the time. Should the discussion shift to a Big 5, perhaps?At least one person says absolutely not: Stan the Man, himself.First, I think its not fair for them to put me there. I think theyve been there more than 10 years. ... Theyve been winning everything, and I think its just not fair, Wawrinka said Monday, meeting with reporters a day after beating Djokovic 6-7 (1), 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 in the final at Flushing Meadows.The Big 4 stays the Big 4, like that, he added with a smile. Im me.Maybe it doesnt matter how Wawrinka is characterized. His accomplishments are worthy enough on their own, without any sort of embellishment or stamp of approval via a status conferred by others.Wawrinka is ranked No. 3, behind Djokovic and Murray, and ahead of the recently injured Nadal and Federer at the moment. He also has a bit of a confounding overall record.Yes, Wawrinka owns those three all-important trophies and stands one Wimbledon title away from becoming the ninth man to complete a career Grand Slam; and, yes, he beat Djokovic en route to all three; and, yes, he is 3-0 in major finals; and, yes, he has beaten the owner of the No. 1 ranking in each of those; and, yes, he has won his past 11 tournament finals.There are, however, some gaps that could use filling.For one thing, he is 0-19 against whoever is No. 1 in all settings other than a title match at a major. For another, he owns exactly one Masters 1000 title, well behind the pack: Since 2009, Djokovic has 26, Nadal 16, and Federer and Murray 10 apiece.Wawrinka says thats a big reason he wont put himself in the same class as the others.dddddddddddd And he acknowledges he wants to be more consistent throughout the season, faring better in those types of tournaments.Rod Laver tends to agree, saying Monday that Wawrinka can prove hes up there with that other quartet with some better showings at the Masters.That said, Laver -- owner of 11 major titles, and the only two-time winner of a calendar-year Grand Slam -- was impressed by what he saw of Wawrinka from the Arthur Ashe Stadium stands Sunday.His game has improved. He used to have an OK forehand, and now it really is a weapon. That backhand was always there, Laver said. Its neat, the way he doesnt let up. Even when its a tough one, hes still going for `em. Because you think, `God, hes just got to mis-hit a few of them when hes down break points. And he never did.Wawrinka said Monday he stepped on court the evening earlier knowing he could beat Djokovic and assured his coach, Magnus Norman, as much.Just before the match, when we were talking, I told him I had a feeling that, this time, Im even more confident to beat him. I feel better than him, Wawrinka said. And its the first time ever I had that feeling in a tournament and in a match. And maybe thats also one of the reasons I played so well.At 31, Wawrinka is the oldest U.S. Open mens champion since 1970. Hes only the fifth man in the Open era with at least two major titles after 30.Not bad for a guy who said his goal when he started out was to maybe one day play a French Open.Not win it. Just get in the draw.So labels dont matter to him. Big 4? Big 5? Who cares?I dont want to keep talking about being part of them or close (to) them, because I think the Big 4 has to stay the Big 4, Wawrinka said, his shiny silver trophy on the table in front of him. Its a part of tennis history and it will always be like that, and I think its great like that.---Howard Fendrich covers tennis for The Associated Press.
