Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of Bangladesh says that they will bowl first because of the overcast conditions and they don’t know how the pitch will behave. Tells that it is a big game for them and adds that the boys know what is coming their way and they are looking to do well. Mentions that they have played quite well so far and are looking forward to this game. Informs that they have one change with Soumya Sarkar missing out and Shoriful Islam will be replacing him.

INDIA (Playing XI) - KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma (C), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik (WK), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel (In for Deepak Hooda), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammad Shami, Arshdeep Singh.

BANGLADESH (Playing XI) - Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das, Shakib Al Hasan (C), Afif Hossain, Yasir Ali, Nurul Hasan (WK), Mosaddek Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman, Hasan Mahmud, Shoriful Islam (In for Soumya Sarkar), Taskin Ahmed.

TOSS - The coin goes up and lands in favour of Bangladesh. They have opted to FIELD first.

We should have been done with the toss till now, but the first game of the day finished a bit late, so there is a slight delay in the toss. As far as overhead conditions are concerned, it is bit overcast at the moment.

So, the first game of the day between Netherlands and Zimbabwe is completed now. The Dutch have come out on top in that game and have registered their first win in the Super 12 stage in this World Cup. Time to get ready for the action from this game now!

Bangladesh, on the other hand, are coming into this game on the back of a thrilling win against Zimbabwe. However, they need to be at the top of their game in this one to get another two points in their kitty. Bangladesh’s bowling attack is pretty formidable with Taskin Ahmed leading the way and Mustafizur Rahman showing all his class in the last game. A lot though will depend on how their batters perform and if they can get their act together, we might have an interesting contest here. Stay tuned for the toss and further updates. 

India have played some good cricket in this World Cup and though they lost their last game, they surely are the favourites to win this one. The biggest positive for India so far is the way their pacers are bowling while most of the batters have also got runs under their belt. The concern though would be the form of KL Rahul and it is high time that he joins the party. However, it would be interesting to see if India persist with Deepak Hooda or make a change or two in their playing XI.

Hello and a very warm welcome folks! We are at the picturesque Adelaide Oval and it will be India going up against Bangladesh in this important Group 2 fixture. This has been a fascinating World Cup so far and expect these two Asian sides to put on a show here as they look to grab two crucial points from this game.

... MATCH DAY …
