Big wins for India, Pakistan

Already eliminated Australia were dismissed for 86 yesterday to give India victory by 73 runs in the World T20 match at Mirpur.

Australian captain George Bailey won the toss, asking India to bat first and had his opponents in some trouble at 66/4 in the 12th over.

However Yuvraj Singh hit 62 from 43 balls, including five fours and four sixes, to take his team to a respectable 159/7.

He added 84 with captain MS Dhoni, who scored 24 from 20 balls.

Australia's reply never got going as India's spinners caused them huge problems, Ashwin finishing with 4/11 from 3.2 overs and Mishra 2/13 from three overs.

Glenn Maxwell was Australia's top scorer, with 23 made from 12 balls, including three sixes.

Ahmed Shehzad registered Pakistan's first 20-over century as his side thrashed hosts Bangladesh by 50 runs and confirmed Australia's exit from the World Twenty20.

Shehzad carried his bat for 111 not out, including 10 boundaries and five sixes, as Pakistan posted 190/5 - a score that proved well beyond the Tigers, whose 140/7 meant they registered a third straight defeat.

Shehzad's 62-ball knock, as well as three wickets for Umar Gul, teed up a straight shootout for the semifinals between Pakistan and West Indies in their final group game on Tuesday.

Shehzad's knock spanned the entirety of the Pakistan innings, the 22-year-old facing the first ball and the last.
