It was Rohit Sharma whose unbeaten century sealed India`s place in a Champions Trophy final.
Bangladesh`s total of 264 for seven never looked like being enough and was duly made to look inadequate by India`s powerful top-order.
Sharma and fellow opener Shikhar Dhawan (46) put on 87 before Sharma (123 not out) and India captain Virat Kohli (96 not out) completed the job with nearly 10 overs to spare.
