India lost the opening encounter, as they suffered first ever defeat against the Bangladesh team in the shortest format. In the absence of Kohli, the Indian batting line-up failed to live up to expectation at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi as they only managed to score 148/6 in their quota of 20 overs.
