PACE Spearhead Mohammed Shami established the victory with 5-53 figures, helping to reduce Bangladesh to 35-5 in his opening spell before recovering to drive 228, after choosing Be.
Towhid Hriday, who made 100, his first tone Odi, and Jaker Ali (68) put 154 races for the sixth wickt to lift the total, although with some help of the neglected Indian fixations, including two fallen captures.
In response, India began strongly when Rohit Sharma and Gill launched with regular limits. Rohit became the tenth batter, and fourth in India, to exceed 11,000 hate races.
The captain of India made 41 before she was fired by the Bowling player Rapid Taskin Ahmed and Virat Kohli entered the strong cheers of the crowd in a large stage empty.

But the ViceCapitán Gill, who was a series of the series with 259 races in the sweeping of England 3-0 of India last week, kept calm while he and Kl Rahul took the team home in an undefeated stand of 87 races.
Rahul ended 41 was not, but Jaker dropped him early in his entries into the deep Wickt and India never hesitated after that with Gill reaching his eighth century of hate.
Shami was the bolus hero with his sixth route of five Wickt in 104 Odi, taking a step forward in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, who was discarded from the tournament due to a back injury.
Shami hit the first for Soumya Sarkar Zurdo to catch a five ball duck.
The left arm spinner Axar hit two balls twice to send Tanzid Hasan (25) and Mushfiqur Rahim, for a duck, walking back to the pavilion.

Jaker, who survived another chance on 24 when the Wicktkeeper Rahul was lost, and Towhid fell on Hardik Pandya in the middle of the middle, combined to frustrate the Indian position.
Jaker fell to Shami, but Towhid kept the fight until his 118 ball blow ended with six four and two six. India Next plays the archirival Pakistan in a Sunday box office success.
