India got the expected winning start in the Super 8 and would like to put one foot in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 semis by beating Bangladesh, who must win this game to advance to the semis. Table: Schedule of BAN vs IND Match in the Current T20 World Cup’s Super 8 Stage  Match Details Match Date (BST) Teams Time (BST) Venue 47 22/6/2024 Bangladesh vs India 8:30 PM Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua . Preview of BAN vs IND Match in ICC World Cup Super 8 India are one of the only two teams in this World Cup who did not lose a game. Apart from the rain that hit the last match of the group stage against Canada, they won every single game of theirs. So far, India’s T20 World Cup 2024 journey has been a strange one. They do not have any batter who features in the top 15 run-scorers of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, which is not usual. Playing all the group games on the tricky surfaces of New York and Florida had an impact on their batting.  However, they regained form in the much more batting-friendly pitches of West Indies when they scored 180+ against Afghanistan. Moreover, their bowling attack was spot on and restricted every opponent to a severely low total. Thus, they didn’t lose a game even after not scoring much. Especially, their strike bowlers are in tremendous form picking up 18 wickets combined already.

Both Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Rishad Hossain have picked 9 wickets each. Apart from that, Mustafizur Rahman has also picked up 7 wickets. Nonetheless, their batting is out of form at this moment. It seems like they just cannot find a way to click at this point.  Bangladesh ended up scoring only 140 on a pitch which was brilliant to bat on. Therefore, it is increasingly seeming hard to see Bangladesh do much in the Super 8 with such miserable batting form. It is not the case for India who can rely on their batting now after scoring 181 against a solid Afghanistan bowling attack. Additionally, all of their batters scored at an excellent strike rate except for skipper Rohit Sharma. As a result, India will feel confident about facing Bangladeshi bowling attack ahead of the game. One thing that might be a matter of slight concern for them is their opening pair which consists of two of the greatest hitters of the generation but yet not clicking. Their highest opening stand is 22 which is quite underwhelming. India would be confident about their openers getting runs but it will be in their minds as well.

But he gave symbols of coming back to runs with his 24 against Afghanistan. It can be felt that he will have a big score soon and no opponent would be more suitable than Bangladesh against whom he averages 96.5 in the T20Is Suryakumar Yadav With his half-century in the last game, Suryakumar Yadav is surely gaining ground in this ICC Men’s T20 World Cup and might be the most impactful batter against Bangladesh. Jasprit Bumrah The ace bowler of India is going to be crucial against Bangladesh, against a struggling top order who find it difficult to deal with raw pace, Jasprit Bumrah will be key to picking early wickets and rattling the top-order of Bangladesh's batting line-up. Read more: Analysis of India Squad for the ICC Men’s T20 World 2024 Key Players to Watch in  Bangladesh Tanzim Hasan Sakib Bangladesh has been largely reliant on their bowlers to get a result in this World Cup. This game is not going to be any different it seems. Therefore, the highest wicket-taker for Bangladesh this time would be the most important player for them in this game as well. Mustafizur Rahman Mustafizur Rahman and India go a long way back. He is simply in a different mode while facing India. Bangladesh team need him to step up once again and dominate the Indian batters like he used to do in his early and best days.   Litton Kumer Das This might seem a bit controversial given the current situation. But like Mustafizur Rahman, Litton Kumer Das also loves performing against India. Everyone will remember the exceptional innings of 60 runs from him in the 2022 T20 World Cup. In a situation, where big runs are necessary to win and the top order is heavily underperforming, Bangladesh fans will hope for Litton Das to bring that Adelaide innings from the 2022 T20 World Cup at Antigua this time. Verdict India are the favorites in every match in this ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. They would not want to break their winning streak. The BAN vs IND T20 match in the Super 8 stage might not be different either. However, Bangladesh have a slender hope given their batters' performance.

Bangladesh and India women’s teams will face each other for the 3rd T20I of the 5-match series in Sylhet. Indian women’s team, who are currently leading the series by 2-0, will look to wrap up the series after comfortably winning the first two games. On the other hand, Bangladesh Women have one last chance to stay in the series. The match will start at 4:00 PM BST. Details of BAN vs IND Women 3rd T20I Table: Schedule and Venue of 3rd T20I between Bangladesh and India Women’s Team Match Date Time Venue 3rd T20I Thursday, May 2, 2024 4:00 P.M BST Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet  Preview of Bangladesh vs India Women’s 3rd T20I India are in a comfortable position after winning the first two games in the ongoing series. Bangladesh are struggling with their batting mostly. They could only manage 101 and 119 in the two matches after completing their full quota of batting. This is a worrying sign for them as they are not giving the bowlers much to play with.  Additionally, only three Bangladesh batters reached double figures in the first T20I. The second match saw only four Bangladeshi batters reaching double figures. The highest scorer of the first game from Bangladesh was Nigar Sultana who took 48 deliveries to make 51 runs. Murshida Khatun was the highest scorer for Bangladesh in the second game scoring 46 (49).  Read more: India Women secure lead with rain-affected win over Bangladesh Ahead of the 3rd T20I, Bangladesh Women would desperately want their batters to contribute a lot more. The bowlers didn’t have much to do in these two games but they could and should have done a lot better. The pitch of the first game was not a 145-run pitch according to experts. In the second game, they failed to take advantage of a rain-inflicted condition which was a disappointing scenario to watch.  Marufa Akter is among the wickets which is a boost for Bangladesh. However, Nahida Akter, the main strike bowler for Bangladesh, has been wicketless and expensive as well. She needs to step up in this game for Bangladesh to have any chance of winning. India, on the other hand, have been dominating Bangladesh in the ongoing series. Their performance is reflected in the results as well. Their bowling department is working as a unit to restrict Bangladesh to a low score. Their spin trio of Deepti Sharma, Radha Yadav, and Shreyanka Patil have been economical and picked up crucial wickets. The woman of the match from the first game Renuka Singh was quite expensive in the 2nd game and will try to bring her rhythm back in this game. Pooja Vastrakar has also been handy.  The batters did exactly what was expected of them. Shafali Verma, Yastika Bhatia, Harmanpreet Kaur, and Richa Ghosh played quick innings in the first game to give India a winning total of 145. Dayalan Hemalatha’s 41(24) almost single-handedly won the second match for them with the bat. They would now hope for Smriti Mandhana to shine as she has not performed well in this series yet. India mostly relied on overall team performance so far in this series. They would expect the same in the remaining games as well.

In a series where Bangladeshi batters are struggling so much, Nigar Sultana’s captain’s knock is exactly what’s needed for the team. She has also stepped up on such occasions and is expected to do it again. Nahida Akter Nahida Akter is still wicketless in this series. But Bangladesh needs their most in-form bowler to rise up. Especially the effective bowling from Indian spinners automatically asks a lot more from her. She is very much capable of providing such performance and both the team and their fans will expect her to deliver in this game. Key Players from India Squad Smriti Mandhana The dashing Indian opener is yet to get runs in this series. She would be more than willing to get runs on the pitches where she would lead India’s batting in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Therefore, Bangladesh must be especially aware of this cricketer who is always hungry for runs. Deepti Sharma  Deepti Sharma already picked three wickets in this T20I series against Bangladesh. But most importantly she kept an economy of 3.625 which kept Bangladesh under pressure and made the task easy for other bowlers. She is expected to do something similar in the 3rd T20I as well. Her strong game sense and effective bowling would also be key for India’s victory this time. Final Words  India are the favorites ahead of the 3rd T20I in the 2024 BAN vs IND Women’s T20I series. But Bangladesh have grown a fighting and ‘never giving up’ mentality over the last 1-1.5 years. Therefore, tigresses are expected to fight strongly in this game to survive in the series. The stage is set for an exciting game on Thursday, May 2 at Sylhet. Read more: Preview of Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe 1st T20I Match of 2024

India secured an 87-run lead in the first innings of the Dhaka Test on Friday. They were bundled out for 314 in reply to Bangladesh's 227. Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer led the way for India with spectacular individual efforts, accumulating 93 and 87 runs, respectively. Rishabh is lucky to be there as Nurul Hasan Sohan failed to capitalise on an easy stumping opportunity off Shakib Al Hasan's delivery. The batter was well out of the crease but Nurul was not able to break the stumps in time. Read: Dhaka Test: Taijul draws first blood on day two against India Shreyas was also very close to being dismissed a few times, but he managed to escape with a score of 87. Unfortunately, Mehidy Hasan Miraz dropped a catch at the gully despite his best efforts. India, however, lost their last six wickets for 61 runs. Bangladesh had a successful first session when they took three wickets, thanks to Taijul's impeccable bowling.

Shakib bagged four wickets, proving his bowling prowess in Test once again.

Bangladesh lost the toss and were asked to bowl first in Chattogram in the first Test of a two-match series against India. Looking to continue their success demonstrated in the ODI series, Bangladesh now face India in a series of Tests. In this Test, Zakir Hasan, the accomplished left-handed wicketkeeper batter, was awarded the Test cap. He has shown great form in the longer version of cricket in recent years at the domestic circuit.

This was the first time he was excluded from a Test match in Chattogram since his debut in 2013. The hosts fielded three genuine bowlers — Ebadot Hossain, Khaled Ahmed and Taijul Islam — along with allrounders Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz. India are missing their captain Rohit Sharma who sustained a finger injury in the ODI series. In his absence, Lokesh Rahul is leading them in this Test.

Ishan Kishan, the left-handed Indian batter, achieved a historic milestone today in Chattogram by registering his first-ever century in an ODI match against Bangladesh and converting it to an impressive double-century. His record-breaking feat put India firmly in control of the third game of the three-match ODI series. Ishan was called upon to take the place of Rohit Sharma in the playing XI for this match, following Sharma's injury in the previous match in Dhaka, which ultimately ruled him out of the series. The 24-year-old Ishan opened the innings with Shikhar Dhawan. However, the latter fell to Mehidy Hasan Miraz soon after Bangladesh successfully reviewed an umpiring decision in their favor. Read more: Bangladesh win toss, opt to bowl first in 3rd ODI vs India In response to the early loss of Dhawan, Ishan and Indian batting legend Virat Kohli then combined to engineer a record-breaking partnership of 290 runs for the second wicket - the second-highest partnership in ODIs in Bangladesh after the 292-run stand of Liton Das and Tamim Iqbal. The 290-run partnership of Ishan and Virat surpassed the 282-run stand between Hashim Amla and Quinton de Kock in Kimberley in 2017 to become the highest ODI partnershipagainst Bangladesh. After the early dismissal of Shikhar, Ishan went on a rampage, posting a memorable 210 runs of 131 balls, which included 24 fours and 10 sixes. His performance was highlighted by a fifty off 49 balls and a century off 85 balls (14 fours, 2 sixes). Following Ishan's dismissal, Virat also brought up a memorable century of his own, his 44th in ODIs, with India racking up 339 for three after 40 overs, with Virat unbeaten at 112 off 89 balls.

Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bowl first in the third ODI of the three-match series against India, today (December 10, 2022) in Chattogram.Tigers made two changes to their playing XI, with Taskin Ahmed and Yasir Ali taking the places of Nasum Ahmed and Najmul Hossain Shanto. India also made two changes to their playing XI, bringing in Ishan Kishan and Kuldeep Sen to replace the injured Rohit Sharma and Deepak Chahar. Bangladesh won the first two matches of the series, which took place in Dhaka. Mehidy Hasan Miraz starred in both matches, batting brilliantly to guide Bangladesh to their second series victory over India in the format.

Bangladesh are suffering a batting collapse, losing 6 wickets for just 69 runs, in 18 overs while batting first in the second ODI against India at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Wednesday (December 07, 2022). Mohammad Siraj bagged two wickets, while Umran Malik took one and Washington Sundar got the crucial breakthrough by removing Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Afif Hossain who scored a duck. Anamul Haque Bijoy was the first one to fall, as he was trapped LBW by Mohammad Siraj after facing a series of fuller deliveries, hitting two boundaries and scoring 11 off 9 balls. Read: Bangladesh win toss, batting first in 2nd ODI vs India Mohammad Siraj scalped the wicket of Bangladesh captain Liton Das with a well-executed good length inswinger, smashing his middle stumps. Liton made 7 runs off 23 balls, failing to get into a rhythm in the middle. Umran Malik sent Bangladesh into further turmoil as he removed Najmul Hossain Shanto with a 151 kmph fast delivery. Shanto might have anticipated a short delivery, yet it was not to be as he went for a drive to the cover unsuccessfully, losing his off-stump in the process. Bangladesh had come into the second match of the series looking to win it and take the lead, after narrowly winning the first game against India on December 06, 2022 by one wicket at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. However, this batting collapse might bring a result that the Bangladeshi fans at Mirpur are not expecting at all. Read: BAN vs IND: Tigers eye second consecutive win

Despite the bitter taste of defeat in the first match still lingering, the Indian team was penalised 80 percent of their match fee due to maintaining a slow over-rate in the initial ODI versus Bangladesh in Dhaka on Sunday. The ICC revealed the development on Monday afternoon. Ranjan Madugalle of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees imposed the fine after India were ruled to be four overs short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration. Read: BAN vs IND: Tigers not letting first win go to their head In spite of being ahead in the match for the bulk of Bangladesh's innings, India eventually succumbed to defeat by one wicket. The visitors batted first after losing the toss, and were restricted to only 186 runs due to the superior bowling performances of Shakib Al Hasan and Ebadot Hossain. While Shakib scalped five wickets in the match, Ebadot registered his maiden four-wicket haul. In reply, Mehidy spearheaded Bangladesh to an extraordinary victory. Needing 51 runs for victory with only a solitary wicket remaining, the home side displayed immense courage in the face of adversity to pull off a remarkable win, largely due to the heroic batting efforts of Mehidy. Read: Is Mehidy Hasan Miraz best Bangladeshi all-rounder in 2022? Although Mohammed Siraj picked up three wickets for India, his hard work ultimately went unrewarded. The second and third ODIs of the series will take place on December 7th and 10th in Dhaka and Chattogram, respectively.

Right-arm pacer Ebadot Hossain stated that his team's remarkable one-wicket victory in the first of the three-match ODI series against India is not going to their head. The teams will face off again in the second ODI on December 7 at Dhaka’s Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. When the ninth wicket fell, Bangladesh were still needing a daunting 51 runs for victory. Yet, through sheer determination and skill, Mehidy Hasan Miraz steered Bangladesh to an unlikely victory over India, utterly defying the odds before the final run was scored. Mustafizur Rahman joined Mehidy in the last wicket partnership that the Mirpur crowd will cherish for years to come. “We are pleased to have gotten off to a good start in this series," Ebadot commented on Monday while addressing the media. "However, we cannot forget that the series is not over yet. We still have more matches to play and everyone is determined to do their best and achieve a favorable result.” Read: Is Mehidy Hasan Miraz best Bangladeshi all-rounder in 2022? It was only the second ODI for the right-handed pacer, but he made the most of the opportunity and had a great game in the middle, taking four wickets for just 47 runs – his best performance yet in his short career.

After shepherding Bangladesh to a thrilling victory against India from a seemingly lost position, Mehidy Hasan Miraz revealed he had only one thing on his mind, to win the game for his team, even as last man Mustafizur Rahman joined him in the middle with 50 runs still required to win. Bangladesh produced a lacklustre batting display while in pursuit of 187 runs. Najmul Hossain Shanto was dismissed off the first ball, prodding at a delivery outside the off stump to first slip. The hosts adopted an ultra-slow approach against India's quality bowling attack, and it all seemed to have gone horribly wrong when the side lost five wickets in a span of 27 balls scoring just eight runs. Read: Mehidy, Fizz carry Bangladesh to nailbiting win over India Ultimately Bangladesh managed to clinch the win thanks to Mehidy’s extraordinary effort with the bat, and his maturity in guiding Mustafizur through the unbroken, matchwinning last-wicket partnership. “It may sound crazy, but I'm telling the truth when I say that I had the belief we could do it,” Mehidy declared in the post-match press conference. “I was addressing my partners and told them we didn't have to lose hope even after losing quick wickets.” After Mushfiqur Rahim was dismissed for 18 off 45 balls, Mehidy Hasan came to bat at number eight and had an immense responsibility to steer the Tigers back on track. Unfortunately, Afif Hossain failed to accompany him in the pursuit. After Afif, Ebadot Hossain and Hasan Mahmud failed to provide adequate support to Mehidy in the middle. However, Mustafizur Rahman proved to be a sturdy ally, standing out strongly for Bangladesh. Read: Tamim, Taskin ruled out of India ODIs “When Mustafizur arrived in the middle, he told me he wouldn't get dismissed and that he would take any ball that came his way and take it on his body,” Mehidy said, commending his partner's courage. “It really inspired me.” Bangladesh have endured a number of crushing defeats to India in recent years, with heartbreaks including failing to score two runs off three balls in the 2016 T20 World Cup, unsuccessfully defending 12 runs off the last over of the 2018 Nidahas Trophy final, and losing in the last T20 World Cup by just five runs earlier this year. However, Bangladesh were finally able to turn the tides in their favour on this occasion. Mehdiy was determined to end their streak of close defeats against India. “This is a start,” he declared. “We have been too close for too long. We need to play differently from now on.”
