After starting their Super 8 campaign with a thumping 47 run victory against Afghanistan, India will take on Bangladesh in their second match of the Super 8 at the Sir Vivian Richards stadium in Antigua on Saturday.
Rohit Sharma’s side comes into this match still undefeated in the tournament with 4 wins and a draw in 5 matches. On the other hand, Bangladesh is having their best-ever T20 World Cup campaign as they qualified for the Super 8 after winning 3 out of their 4 group stage matches.
However, the Tigers were handed a loss by Australia in their first Super 8 match so they will be under pressure because if they lose one more match then their semi-final hopes can very well be crushed.
India: Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah
Bangladesh: Tanzid Hasan, Liton Das (wk), Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Towhid Hridoy, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah Riyad, Mahedi Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Tanzim Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman
In 13 T20I meetings between the two nations, India has by far been the better side with 12 wins while Bangladesh has struggled with just a single win.
Sir Vivian Richards stadium provides help for both the batsmen and the bowlers at different stages of the match. The pitch has proved beneficial for the big hitters in this World Cup so far with South Africa scoring a mammoth total of 194 against USA here. In the latest game at this venue, Bangladesh were restricted to 140 by Australia with the pacers dominating the game.
