, 5 news, 3 views

Suryakumar Yadav's much-needed fifty and Jasprit Bumrah's reliability with the ball helped India kickstart their T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 campaign on a high as the Men in Blue registered a 47-run victory against Afghanistan at Kensington Oval, Bridgetown on Thursday. The Rohit Sharma-led India are currently placed second on the Super Eight Group 1 Standing and are gearing up to take on another Asian rival in Bangladesh at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on June 22. A win against the Bangla Tigers will almost guarantee India a semi-final spot.

Ahead of this exciting contest, let's have a look at India's predicted XI against Bangladesh.

India skipper Rohit Sharma has had an underwhelming run since he scored an unbeaten half-century against Ireland in India's tournament opener. However, the explosive opener has managed to score 76 runs in the tournament so far.

With over 4000 runs and a strike rate of 139.32 in T20Is, Rohit is always a go-to opener in the format. Furthermore, the Hitman has smashed 454 runs at a strike rate of 141 against Bangladesh in T20Is and will be looking to continue his dominance over them.
