Three spells of rain have forced the third ODI between Bangladesh and India to be abandoned on Thursday.
India had already sealed the series 2-0, winning the first two matches.
Electing to bat first, India were reeling at 119 for nine in 34.2 overs before rain interrupted proceedings for the third time at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka.
Rain halted play for 25 minutes in the ninth over and for two and a half hours in the 13th over. Consequently, the game was initially curtailed to 40 overs a side.
But the downpour returned in the 35th over to delay proceedings for another one and a half hours, forcing the umpires, Enamul Haque and Kumar Dharmasena, to call off the game.
Bangladesh bowlers were economic and took wickets regularly to tie India down to the score in the rain-marred third match.
Cheteshwar Pujara topscored for the visitors, with a 63-ball 27, while skipper Suresh Raina and Stuart Binny scored 25 runs each.
Sent in to field, the hosts were off to a perfect start.
Pacer Al-Amin Hossain sent two Indian batsmen back while Mashrafe Mortaza and Taskin Ahmed each scalped one early to reduce them to 16 for four in 9.3 overs.
Openers Robin Uthappa (5) and Ajinkya Rahane (3) were sent back in successive overs, fifth and sixth, of Mashrafe and Al-Amin for catches to Nasir Hossain at first slip.
Taskin, who again proved to be a wizard, struck with his first ball to take out Ambati Rayudu (1). Al Amin picked up his second wicket, Manoj Tiwary (2), in the 10th over to pile heaps of trouble on the visitors.
Pujara and Raina put up some resistance with a 41-run fifth wicket stand, India’s highest in the match.
But the hosts’ talismanic all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan sent back the dangerous Suresh Raina in his first over after a run-a-ball 25.
Pujara and Wriddhiman Saha paired up to add 32 runs for the sixth wicket.
Shakib kept things tight and eventually went through Saha (16) to have him bowled, initiating another crumble of three wickets within eight runs for India.
In his next over, the 27-year old all-rounder trapped Cheteshwar Pujara leg before followed by the dismissal of Akshar Patel by the 19-year-old Taskin.
The collapse threatened India, on 97 for eight at the stage, to fold up before reaching 100. But Binny held on to take his side beyond the mark.
Stuart Binny, adjudged Man of the Match, remained unbeaten when rain interrupted proceedings to force the D/L method to curtail the match further.
Shakib bagged three wickets, while Al-Amin and Taskin took two each. Mashrafe and Gazi also picked up a wicket each.
