IND vs BAN T20 WC 2024: Victory over Afghanistan, but Team India must not make this mistake against Bangladesh

Team India playing 11 vs BAN T20 WC 2024: India, on a winning streak, take on Bangladesh in the Super Eights stage match of the T20 World Cup on Saturday and hope that their star batsman returns to form, the opponent’s previous record cannot be taken into account. You can do it lightly. India has the upper hand in the head-to-head record of the two teams but Bangladesh is adept at creating upsets and Team India knows this very well. The strong contenders for the title, the Indian team, performed brilliantly in the first match of the Super Eight phase against Afghanistan. There is not much gap between the remaining two matches, so captain Rohit Sharma will be hoping that his star players return to form.

Virat Kohli and Rohit have started well but have yet to play big innings. Left-handed batsman Shivam Dubey was kept in the squad to hit sixes in the middle and death overs but has not lived up to expectations so far. The form in the IPL that earned him a place in the Indian team is yet to be seen. He scored 31 not out in the group match against USA but India won thanks to the efforts of Suryakumar Yadav. If he fails once again, the team management may decide to field Sanju Samson.

Hardik Pandya’s return to batting form in the match against Afghanistan was pleasant. India can field a similar combination in bowling. Left arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav got his first chance against Afghanistan and proved effective. After the match, Akshar Patel said that playing three left-arm spinners has been beneficial. One of these is a wrist spinner and two are finger spinners. The combination of these three has been tremendous. We have a good team and our coordination is excellent. We talk amongst ourselves about what is working and what is not. This is very important when bowling as a unit.

India’s sole aim in the West Indies is to win the title and a good performance against Bangladesh will be the next step in that direction as they face Australia on June 24. Bangladesh batsmen have disappointed so far and will have to win at any cost to keep their hopes alive. His team is missing a power hitter. Poor performances from openers Liton Das and Tanjid Khan have also added to his woes.

“Top order runs are important,” Bangladesh captain Nazmul Hussain Shanto said after the loss against Australia. Hopefully the bowlers will also return to form. We aim to be at our best against India, facing Jasprit Bumrah, who has been in great form so far and has an economy rate of 3.46.
