India won the crucial series-decider in Nagpur in dramatic fashion as Deepak Chahar picked up a hat-trick and career best figures in the third T20I against Bangladesh. It was anything but smooth sailing for India, with Bangladesh at one point looking set for a comfortable win, but Deepak Chahar bowled a fantastic spell to give India the win. After Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul scored classy half-centuries to give India a total of 174, Chahar gave India the early breakthrough, taking two wickets in two balls in his first over of the game. But young opener Mohammad Naim and Mohammad Mithun put on a 98-run stand, with Naim scoring a magnificent 81. But Deepak Chahar came back to remove Mohammad Mithun, before Shivam Dube picked up three wickets to put India back in control. Chahar then picked up a wicket on the last ball of his third over, and then, bowling the final over of the innings, he got two in the first two deliveries to become the first Indian to bag a hat-trick in T20Is. The seamer finished with incredible figures of 6-7. (SCORECARD)
