That's it from our coverage of the 3rd T20 international between Bangladesh and India. The visitors winning yet another series. Ninaad Dixit, Ayan Chatterjee and Dushyant Kumar signing off from this game. Stay tuned for more action from around the cricketing world.
Harmanpreet Kaur (India Captain): "Smriti and Shafali were batting very well and we were hoping they will finish the game. After 10 overs the ball kept low and they weren't giving much pace behind the ball. We looked for singles and didn't go for the risky shots. 

Shafali is someone who can always give lot of runs in the powerplay. Good to see her in great touch. At times we try things and result is not in our favor. Today she got runs for the team, very happy for her.

All the bowlers are doing really well. Deepti bowled well in the last game as well. Really proud the way they are bowling. Understanding the areas and executing plans as well.

Deepti is someone who is very experienced. Whenever we are struggling I throw the ball to her. She is experienced and gets us breakthrough. I hope she keeps bowling well for the team.

We still have 3 days before the next game. We will sit and think what to do with the team. Whoever will play will take the responsibility and do well for the side.

The coaching staff is calm and composed. They know what they are doing and the message is always clear. You know your role and you can always go and execute it. They are always giving responsibilities to everyone and see where we stand and where we can improve as a team. Really happy they are working for us."
Shafali Verma (Player of the Match): "Yes, of course. The ball is coming nicely onto bat. I want to middle the ball and play long till the end. I got out but want to bat long. 

Really happy. We both enjoy each other's company. She always back me. Hope we can do 5000 runs and do as much as possible.

Yes, of course. WPL the ball came nicely onto the bat and then continued that today.

There is 2-3 shots but one over covers is best for me.

I think whatever is in my hand will do well for the team. World Cup is 4-5 months away and hope to do well in this series as two matches still remain. We are focussing on the present.

Yes, my dad will be happy today since I won the player of the match after a long time."    
Nigar Sultana (Bangladesh Captain): "We batted well in the powerplay but couldn't get on after that and failed to finish after the 15th over. 

This team is doing well since last 6 months. It is a tough time we are facing now. We need to follow the process. She is very energetic in the batting. [Dilara] She is enjoying in the middle. She can score her first half century if she plays according to the situation. Still I am happy how she is batting.

Bowlers are doing well each and every time, batters are struggling. The way we bowled in the powerplay was concerning. After the powerplay we bowled well. 

We tried everything in the middle. Wanted to try something different to break the partnership. I introduced Ritu and it worked out for me."
Shafali Verma is the player of the match for her 51 in 38 balls.
Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma have crossed the 2000-run mark as a batting pair in T20 internationals!
Smriti Mandhana: "Yes, important win for us going into the series. 3-0 is good. Shafali took on the bowling and it made easier for me to settle in there. Nice to know the stats. Good to do well and completed that out there. Happy to contribute to the team. Yes, definitely. The way she was striking. I gave her singles and that helped me settle in. We were chasing 118. We have developed a good understanding of the last 2 years and hope to continue this further in the coming games."  
6:30 PM IST, 7 PM Local Time: The Indian women's side take an unassailable lead in the 5-match T20I series defeating Bangladesh by 7 wickets in a one-sided third T20I of the series. The women in blue now lead by 3-0. The bowlers did extremely well to contain the hosts for 117/8 and then chased it down in the 19th over.

The openers Smriti Mandhana (47 off 42) and Shafali Verma (51 off 38) started off in attacking fashion adding 59 in the powerplay and 91 in 12.1 overs for the first wicket. Verma got her 9th T20I half century in the process and was dismissed by Ritu Moni taking a blinder off her own bowling.

Smriti was dismissed by Nahida Akter with 18 needed in 35 balls. Dayalan Hemalatha scored 9 off 11 and was trapped by Rabeya Khan meaning the hosts picked up 3 wickets in 4 overs also containing the scoring rate but there were not enough runs to put Harmanpreet Kaur and Richa Ghosh under any sort of pressure. The duo added the needful 8 runs without any further trouble.

Ritu Moni (1/10) was the pick of the bowlers with Rabeya (1/24) and Nahida (1/24) taking a wicket apiece. Besides Fahima Khatun (0/10 in 3 overs), there wasn't much to talk about the Bangladesh bowlers on the economic front.

Both the sides will face each other in the 4th T20I on Monday. Stay tuned for the post match coverage.
