DHAKA, AP:

Bangladesh beat India for only the fourth time in 30 one-day internationals and took a big step yesterday to qualifying for the 2017 Champions Trophy.

Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman became the second Bangladeshi bowler to claim five-for on debut in the comfortable 79-run win at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.

The teenager ran through the much-vaunted India line-up with 5-50, as the visitors were bowled out for 228 in 46 overs in pursuit of 308.

After India's openers gave them a 95-run start, Mustafizur's menacing cutter was decisive.

"It's any bowler's dream to claim five wickets on debut. I am overwhelmed with joy," Mustafizur said. "All I wanted was to do well against India."

Opener Rohit Sharma was India's highest scorer with 63 off 68 balls.

Highest score

Bangladesh rode Tamim Iqbal's 60, Soumya Sarkar's 54, and Shakib Al Hasan's 52 to post its highest score of 307 against India.

Bangladesh last beat India in the 2012 Asia Cup, and most recently lost heavily in the Cricket World Cup quarter-finals. This victory put Bangladesh in great position to rise above West Indies into seventh in the ODI world rankings, and qualify in September for the Champions Trophy after missing the last two.

After a rain delay to India's relief in the 16th over, the visitors hit back with three wickets, including Tamim's, inside the next eight overs to leave Bangladesh on 146-4.

Shakib and Sabbir Rahman put on an 83-run partnership for the fifth wicket to help Bangladesh to recover, before India again ran through the innings, taking wickets at regular intervals.

Off-spinner Ashwin returned figures of 3-51, while fast bowlers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Umesh Yadav claimed two wickets apiece.
