Ind vs ban champions trophy: Team India will start their campaign today in the Champions Trophy. India’s first match in Dubai today is to be with Bangladesh. Bangladesh’s team has made a big upset in many important matches and in such a situation, it can prove to be a mistake. In this important match, the top order of Team India will have to show its strength. Before the match with Bangladesh, Team India captain Rohit Sharma has also emphasized that the top four batsmen of Team India will have to show their batting power against Bangladesh.
By the way, if the figures of ODIs played between India and Bangladesh are considered heavy. Before the match with India, Bangladesh captain Najmul Hussain Shantio has said that Team India should not underestimate and if we are underwent, Team India may get into trouble. Describing his team as completely balanced, he also claimed that if our team’s plan was successful, we are able to defeat any team in the world.
India’s top order will have to show power
During the interaction with the media before the match, Team India captain Rohit Sharma said that we are giving full importance to this tournament. He said that the top order of Team India will have to show their stamina during this match. He said that if the top four batsmen of Team India manage to perform better, then our situation will definitely be strong. It has become clear from Rohit Sharma’s statement that he believes that in today’s match, he will definitely be seen in a strong position if he managed to work well with Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer.
Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir also has high expectations from KL Rahul. He believes that if Rahul is seen in his color, he can prove to be a great finisher. In today’s match, Rishabh Pant may have to sit outside, while Rahul can handle the wicketkeeping like the England series. In such a situation, Rahul will also have to show his strength in batting along with excellent keeping against Bangladesh today.
Why is India being considered heavy
By the way, the Indian team has so far proved to be heavy on Bangladesh in ODIs. Therefore, in today’s match, India’s pan is considered heavy. So far 41 ODI matches have been played between the two teams and during this time Team India has shown their strength to win 32 matches. On the other hand, the team of Bangladesh could win only in eight matches, whereas one match could not get any result. In such a situation, it is clear from the data that the Bangladesh team could win only 20 percent of the matches between the two teams. Due to this, even though the pan of India is being considered heavy today, the team of Bangladesh is also fully capable of reversing.
Team India has won both Dubai ODIs
So far, two ODIs have been played between the two teams on the Dubai ground. Team India won both these matches played under the Asia Cup 2018. In the first ODI, Team India won by seven wickets, while in the final match of Asia Cup 2018, Team India defeated Bangladesh by three wickets. In such a situation, it will not prove to be easy for Bangladesh to defeat Team India today.
Bangladesh captain trusts his team
Meanwhile, Bangladesh captain Najmul Hussain Shanto has said that if you look at the format of the Champions Trophy, the team of Bangladesh is very balanced. We are confident that we are fully capable of defeating any team. He said that no team playing in the Champions Trophy should be considered weak. The captain of Bangladesh said that I am a person who does not think much about opponents. If we implement our plan properly then we can beat any team on any day.
Najmul expressed confidence that this time his bowlers will perform well in the Champion Trophy. He said that we are always struggling with the attack of fast bowling, but during the last few times we have come to us some great fast bowlers. Our fast bowlers swing well and we hope that they will be able to bowl and curb the batsmen by bowling in the right field. On the strength of our good bowling, we can challenge the rival team strongly.
