India vs Bangladesh Match Prediction Asia Cup 2016
India has their best balance in their playing XI for a long time. Dhoni has options galore for him and finally has a good fast bowling all-rounder in Hardik Pandya, who can tonk the ball in the final overs and bowls at a good speed. In Jasprit Bumrah, India has finally unearthed a brilliant death overs bowlers and Dhoni will use him like Malinga, 1 over up front and 3 in the death. India might want to give a game or two to Pawan Negi and Harbhajan Singh in order to give them some match practice before the World T20 begins.
Batting wise, India is golden with most of their batsmen in red hot form and the dilemma for the team management on how to make room for Ajinkya Rahane in the playing XI, when Virat Kohli comes back for the Asia Cup and retains his number 3 spot.
Bangladesh on home conditions are deadly and the last time India played Bangladesh was in an ODI series which Bangladesh won 2-1. Their biggest star was fast bowler Mustafizur Rahim, who picked 11 wickets in his first 2 matches against India. Combine that with the experience and guile of Mashrafe Mortaza and Shakib-Al-Hasan, and you have one of the best attacks in Indian subcontinent conditions.
Their batting is also in the hands of Sabbir Rahman, Nasir Hossain, Shakib and Mahmudullah with experience of Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes.
It will be a battle of Bangladesh spinners vs. India spinners and whoever plays spin well will come on top.
Players to Watch:
Yuvraj Singh: He is the old favorites after returning in both t20 and Asia cup squad. He might be the key for Indin at No. 6 in Batting and as a spare spin bowler who can take wickets while stopping runs. He has some good records against Asian nations. So we can expect some blistering performance if he has given a chance to bat.
India vs Bangladesh Match Prediction: India will win the match, thanks to their form but expect Bangladesh to give a tough fight.
India vs Ban Head to Head in t20:
India has played only 2 T20 matches in T20 World Cup with Bangladesh from 2009-2014 and won the both matches. India won first t20 by 25 runs at Nottingham and 2nd by 8 wickets at Dhaka.
