BAN vs IND Match Prediction- Who will win today's match between BAN vs IND?

Bangladesh is all set to host India for a three-match ODI series and this will be an important series for both the sides in terms of their preparations for the ODI World Cup 2023. The senior batters of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul will be returning for the Indian side and the surprise inclusions for the series were promising batters Rahul Tripathi and Rajat Patidar ahead of proven customers like Sanju Samson and Shubman Gill.  

Jasprit Bumrah is not around due to injury concerns, and India faced another blow as Mohammed Shami was ruled out of the entire series. Spinners Axar Patel and Washington Sundar will have a key role to play with the bat down the order. Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur will have big shoes to fill in too, in the absence of senior pros.

Every performance from here on will be noted given the mega ICC event is coming up. On the other hand, Bangladesh have brought in experienced players like Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah for the series. Skipper Tamim Iqbal will miss the series due to injury concerns while Taskin Ahmed has been ruled out of the first ODI. Litton Das has been appointed the captain for the ODI series.

Probable Top Performers from BAN vs IND

Probable best batter: Shreyas Iyer 

Shreyas Iyer has been the in-form batter for India in the ODIs and he has looked in great touch whenever he has got an opportunity. The right-hander is likely to come in at number four and he will have the chance to seal his spot for the next World Cup 2023. Despite having troubles with the short ball, Iyer averages close to 50 in the format.  

Probable best bowler: Mohammed Siraj 

Mohammed Siraj is a strong contender for a spot in the ODI World Cup 2023 and he has got the skills to deliver. The 28-year-old hits the tough lengths for the batter and has the ability to swing the ball upfront in the powerplay.
