Probable Playing XI:
India:
Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh.
Bangladesh:
Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Soumya Sarkar, Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mustafizur Rahman, Nasum Ahmed, Taskin Ahmed, Tanzim Sakib.
Match Prediction:
India holds the upper hand, given their recent form and overall squad strength. However, Bangladesh can pull off surprises, making this an exciting battle. India will enter the match as favourites, but Bangladesh could cause trouble if their key players step up.
