Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das are the openers for Bangladesh. Jasprit Bumrah has the brand-new ball in hand and is raring to go. A couple of slips in place, let's play...

Just a few minutes left now for the contest to get underway but first, the two teams line up along with their mascots and the officials. It is time for the respective national anthems of the two teams to be played and first, it will be the national anthem of Bangladesh, followed by the Indian national anthem.

Rohit Sharma, the captain of India says that they would have bowled first anyways. Adds that what they are doing is working for them and they do not want to change much. Tells that travelling from one place to another is a challenge but the team is in a good shape. Informs they are unchanged.

Bangladesh skipper, Najmul Hossain Shanto says that they will bat first and says that it is a proud moment for him and his family to be captaining the national team. Mentions that the pitch and weather seem nice and they will look to put runs on the board. Adds that Shakib Al Hasan is out and it is a big blow but Nasum Ahmed comes in and he can do a good job. Adds that they have some good memories against India and hopes for a good match. Also says that he didn't know they were playing against India for the first time in India after 25 years and ends by informing that apart from Shakib, Taskin Ahmed is also out and Hasan Mahmud replaces him.

India (Unchanged Playing XI) - Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (WK), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.

Bangladesh (Playing XI) - Litton Das, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto (C), Mehidy Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (WK), Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Nasum Ahmed (In place of Shakib Al Hasan), Hasan Mahmud (In place of Taskin Ahmed), Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman.

TOSS - Bangladesh have won the toss and they elected to BAT first.

UPDATE - Big news coming from the Bangladesh camp as Shakib Al Hasan is not playing due to a quad injury. Najmul Hossain Shanto to lead the side.

PITCH REPORT - Sanjay Manjrekar and Irfan Pathan are pitchside. Sanjay starts by saying that it is a good pitch and there are runs to be scored but the seamers won't mind bowling first and reckons it won't turn much. Irfan then adds that it is a definition of a true pitch where you can bat well and a good seamer can get good purchase as well. Adds that it is a hard pitch and a black soil pitch and it will be a high-scoring game. Also, he adds that the pacers might look to use the bouncer more rather than pitching it up but the lines have to be tight. Sanjay mentions that there won't be any changes to the Indian side and Rohit Sharma himself might bowl if it turns rather than bringing in Ravichandran Ashwin due to the left-handers in the opposition. Irfan rounds off by saying that if anyone will get turn on this pitch, it will be Kuldeep Yadav.

Shubman Gill is down for a quick chat. Gill says that it is very important for him to stick to the basics and have a positive mindset. Adds that the World Cup experience has been great and to play his first game against Pakistan was unreal and hopes that they can keep the winning run going. On Rohit Sharma, he says that it doesn't change the way he plays and Rohit is an aggressive player and plays the way he wants to play. On playing in Pune, he says that given it is a smallish ground, hopefully, they can get good runs on the board for their bowlers to defend. Mentions that it is about not losing early wickets and then being able to get those big runs in the middle overs.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, have been inconsistent in this competition and will be desperate to get back to winning ways after two defeats. Their main issue is their top order and they will hope that Litton Das can find his form back and perform in this game while Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim have always been the ones to take them out of difficult situations. Captain Shakib has a good record against India with both bat and ball and in Mehidy Hasan they now have another decent all-rounder. However, if they really want to challenge the hosts, they might have to do it without Shakib who is a doubt for this game and the pacers will need to step up their game. Let's see who comes out on top. Toss and team news in a bit.

Rohit Sharma and his men have lived up to the favourites tag so far and will want to continue the momentum. The top order has fired well after a collapse in the first game and four batters have registered fifty-plus scores which also includes a ton from the skipper himself. Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav have been brilliant and troubled the batters in all three games while Ravindra Jadeja has used his experience well too and they could prove to be the difference again in this match.

Hello and a warm welcome folks! After starting their World Cup campaign in fine fashion with three straight wins, the hosts, India, have their eyes set on Bangladesh to maintain the unbeaten run. However, a few of the recent results have gone in the way of the Bangla Tigers, 3 wins in the last 4 matches to be precise, giving them a big confidence boost and making this contest even more exciting to watch.

... MATCH DAY ...

The Men in Blue are back in action in the World Cup as they take on neighbours Bangladesh to maintain their unbeaten run and make it four wins in a row. Rohit Sharma's side has started their campaign emphatically with three huge wins, the last one being against arch-rivals Pakistan. Skipper's form has been terrific and he has already scored more than 200 runs in the first three games while Kohli is doing Kohli things too. The return of Shubman Gill makes them even stronger while Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul have also got runs under their belts. The only thing is that their middle order is yet to be tested properly and it will be interesting to see how they perform when the opportunity arises eventually. Jasprit Bumrah is leading from the front with the ball and whenever the team needs a breakthrough, he has stepped up every time. Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja have been brilliant too and the batters are finding it hard to read them on Indian wickets. Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur have been playing the supporting role while Hardik Pandya has been a bit inconsistent with the ball. However, they have the luxury of getting Mohammed Shami or Ravichandran Ashwin on the team whose experience could prove useful, while if they need more firepower in batting, Ishan Kishan can come in as well. History also favours the hosts as they have won three out of four matches against the same opposition in ODI World Cups. Bangladesh, on the other hand, after winning their first game of the tournament suffered back-to-back defeats and will be desperate for the two points here. Their top order has been very inconsistent and their decision to drop Tamim Iqbal for Tanzid Hasan hasn't borne much fruit till now while they will expect more from Litton Das at the top as well. They are highly dependent on their experienced players like Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Mahmudullah who have been their best batters so far but they will need much more from the players around them to challenge the hosts. Mehidy Hasan is a valuable player for them who is in good form and can bat at any position without losing much effectiveness. Their bowling is also very spin-heavy, with their skipper and Mehidy enjoying the conditions over here which could be a threat to the Indian batters. Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, and Shoriful Islam will need to take a bit more responsibility with the ball and if they want an extra spinner, they can bring in Mahedi Hasan as well who can also come in handy with the bat. However, they can take inspiration from that famous win against India in the 2007 ODI World Cup and believe it or not, Bangladesh have won three of the last five ODIs against the hosts which will surely give them a lot of confidence and belief that they can repeat that in this mega event. Will Bangladesh hand India their first loss in the tournament? Or will the Men in Blue reign supreme over the Bangla Tigers? Let's find out together.
