Bangladesh bowl in must-win game against unchanged India They made one change to the XI that lost the series opener, bringing in Tanzim Hasan for Shoriful Islam
The toss seemed almost inconsequential. Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto opted to bowl first, anticipating dew later in the game. On the other hand, India's captain, Suryakumar Yadav, also expected the dew but chose to bat first, eager to challenge his bowlers with a wet ball. When the formalities were done, Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bowl.
Delhi, in its current form, has transformed into a high-scoring T20 venue, a stark contrast to the slow, low pitches of the past. Under normal circumstances, bowling first in a must-win game seems logical. However, during the IPL, five teams chose to chase after winning the toss, only to end up losing the match.
Bangladesh made one change, recalling the impressive Tanzim Hasan, who stood out as their top bowler during the T20 World Cup earlier this year. Left-arm pacer Shoriful Islam was left out. India, meanwhile, stuck with the same XI that secured a comfortable victory in the series opener in Gwalior.
India XI:
Sanju Samson (wk), 2. Abhishek Sharma, 3. Suryakumar Yadav (capt.), 4. Nitish Kumar Reddy, 5. Hardik Pandya, 6. Riyan Parag, 7. Rinku Singh, 8. Washington Sundar, 9. Mayank Yadav, 10. Arshdeep Singh, 11. Varun Chakravarthy
Bangladesh XI:
Parvez Hossain Emon, 2. Litton Das (wk), 3. Najmul Hossain Shanto (capt.), 4. Towhid Hridoy, 5. Mahmudullah, 6. Jaker Ali, 7. Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 8. Rishad Hossain, 9. Taskin Ahmed, 10. Tanzim Hasan, 11. Mustafizur Rahman
