India vs Bangladesh World Cup 2023 Highlights: Powered by a Virat Kohli ton, India registered a fourth win in a row at the 2023 ODI World Cup as they beat Bangladesh by seven wickets in Pune on Thursday. Chasing 257, the men in blue got off to a quickfire start, thanks to fifties from Shubman Gill and captain Rohit Sharma, who remains India’s top scorer at the tournament thus far.
