India were the hot favourites before World T20 began. But the opening game completely shattered India's hopes as the team struggled to reach even 100. But India recovered from the thumping loss and won against arch rivals Pakistan on a comfort Zone. But even after that win, India's run-rate is in minus.
So to cement a spot in semi-finals, India must win their remaining two games. In case, if India loses against Australia, their Net Run Rate must be higher than Pakistan. So today's match will be crucial for India to increase their Net Run Rate.
On other hand, Bangladesh is completely down and under as they are feeling the heat without Taskin Ahmed and Arafat Sunny. Their premium opener, Tamim Iqbal is still sick and his presence is also doubtful. They can't be taken for granted as they pushed Australia till the end.
India definitely has the advantage, but India entirely relies on Kohli and India's Top order fails again and again. Raina has been on a down patch and he will be looking to score runs.
Rohit Sharma also has just made 25 runs from last three matches. India's bowling looks in good shape with Bumrah giving the tooth at the end of the play. Today's pitch is expected to grip more and offer more turn. There are zero chances of rain as temperature has been in in 30's.
