Asia Cup 2023: India vs Bangladesh, Super Fours – Dafanews Match Preview

India will take on Bangladesh in the last match of the Super Fours stage of the ongoing Asia Cup at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo on Friday. India could experiment a bit in their playing XI and give chances to the likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Axar Patel and Mohammed Shami as they have already qualified for the finals.

On the other hand, Bangladesh have been knocked out and they will want to finish on a high. We look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

Current form for India: W W W NR W

India could only manage 213 runs on a challenging wicket against Sri Lanka and they will aim for a better show with the bat. Team India will look to test their bench and it will be a perfect opportunity for them to do that.

Current form for Bangladesh: L L W L W 

Bangladesh haven’t been able to come up with a collective effort and it has led to their downfall in the tournament. The Tigers have lacked a good batting display and they will want to end the competition on a high to get some confidence.

Head to Head: Matches: 39, Won by India: 31, Won by Bangladesh: 7, NR: 1.

India clearly holds a big advantage against Bangladesh in the head to head battle.

Players to look out for: Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Kuldeep Yadav, and Hardik Pandya will hold the key for Team India.

Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Taskin Ahmed, Towhid Hridoy and Litton Das will be the crucial players for Bangladesh.

India: Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya (vc), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumraj, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Sanju Samson (travelling reserve).

Bangladesh: Shakib Al Hasan (c), Anamul Haque Bijoy, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain Dhrubo, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam, Nasum Ahmed, Shak Mahedi Hasan, Naim Sheikh, Shamim Hossain, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Tanzim Hasan Sakib
