In Hyderabad on Saturday, Sanju Samson’s flamboyant first-ever T20 International century punctuated India’s commanding 133-run triumph and 3-0 series sweeping over a somnolent Bangladesh.

From then on, it was always a matter of the eventual margin of victory. The hosts’ bowling attack was spearheaded by leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi (3/30) and pacer Mayank Yadav (2/32).
