India continued their winning streak as they defeated Bangladesh by seven wickets at the MCC Ground in Ajman to storm into the finals of the 5th Blind Cricket One Day World Cup.

Earlier, Bangladesh had won the toss and elected to bat and scored 256 in 38.5 overs.

It was not a good start for Bangladesh as they lost two early wickets with less than 50 runs on the board.

For Bangladesh, a resilient unbeaten 108 by Abdul Mallik was the highlight.

India's strong bowling department restricted them to a modest score as Durga Rao took three wickets in three overs by giving away only 20 runs.

Deepak Mallik and Prakash bagged two wickets each.
