AJMAN (UAE): A dominant India beat Bangladesh by seven wickets to set up a title clash with arch-rivals Pakistan in the Blind Cricket World Cup, here today.
Man of the Match Ganeshbhai Muhudkar's century steered India home comfortably. He scored 112 in just 69 balls.
Bangladesh had won the toss and elected to bat. They scored 256 all out in 38.5 overs.
Defending champions India will take on Pakistan on January 20 at Sharjah.
