India Vs Bangladesh T20 World Cup 2024 LIVE UPDATES: India is all set to take on Bangladesh in their only warm-up game before their T20 World Cup 2024 campaign kicks off. The match is being played at the newly constructed Nassau County Stadium in New York, where India will play three of their four group matches including the high voltage encounter vs Pakistan.
Indian players come into the tournament after a hectic IPL 2024 and getting used to the conditions in the USA will be the top priority. India have a few selection conundrums and the game against Bangladesh would be the only opportunity for Rohit Sharma to fix the jigsaw. Yashasvi Jaiswal had a mediocre outing in the IPL and he would want to make a big impact in the warm-up game to boost hopes of selection in the main draw. Also, coach Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma will be keeping a keen eye on Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson, both of whom are competing for a place in the playing XI. A good outing for Yuzvendra Chahal could also prompt Rohit Sharma to consider him for a slot in the playing XI.
Bangladesh on the other hand are coming off a shocking loss in a T20I series to minnows USA by a margin of 1-2. In fact, this is the first time that USA beat a Test playing nation in any format. Hence, Najmul Hossain Shanto and team would be looking to shrug off this humiliation with a win against India and head into the tournament with some confidence.
TOSS: The toss is scheduled to be held at 7.30 PM
PITCH REPORT: According to a report by Cricbuzz, Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma had a look at the pitch on May 31, and were quite happy with it. They expected it to be a track that is friendly to batters
