<p>Returning to international cricket after a long injury layoff, Shami grabbed three wickets to reach the milestone in his 104th match and better former India pacer Ajit Agarkar's record of reaching the mark in 133 matches.</p>
<p>Jaker Ali, who made 68, was his 200th wicket. Overall, the 34-year-old fast bowler is the second quickest to 200 ODI wickets, behind Australian left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc, who needed 102 games.</p>
<p>One of India's finest seamers, Shami averages less than 25 in the ODI format and has already taken five fifers and 10 four-wicket hauls.</p>
<p>Shami is the eighth Indian to complete 200 wickets in ODI cricket.</p>
<p>Meanwhile,&nbsp;<span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/along-with-vice-captaincy-axar-patel-takes-on-a-new-role-for-team-india-23472756" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong><em>Axar Patel</em></strong></a> would have had a hat-trick if India skipper Rohit Sharma had not dropped a regulation catch from the blade of Jaker Ali (68 off 114 balls) at first slip.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The technically sound Hridoy in the company of Ali steadied the Bangladesh innings with a sixth-wicket partnership of 154 runs. Hardik Pandya dropped Towhid at mid-off when the batter was on 23.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Brief scores</strong>:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bangladesh: 228 all out in 48.4 overs (Towhid Hridoy 100, Jaker Ali 68; Mohammed Shami 5/53), Harshit Rana 3/31) vs India.</span></p><p>
