India vs Bangladesh T20 World Cup 2022: Toss result and playing 11s for today's match, umpires list and pitch report

Team India will meet Bangladesh in a Group 2 Super 12 clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 at the Adelaide Oval on Wednesday, November 2. The match will be significant for Rohit Sharma and Co. given how their batting, touted as their strength, was blown away by the South African pace duo of Lungi Ngidi and Wayne Parnell. India’s batting effort in Perth, barring the one by Suryakumar Yadav, exposed a lot of hidden flaws.

The opening pair of Rohit and KL Rahul will have to lift themselves. The captain has managed a half-century but has been nowhere near his best. His opening partner got the vote of confidence from coach Rahul Dravid, but he needs to repay it before it is too late. India’s fielding too let them down badly against South Africa. The Men in Blue need to lift themselves against Bangladesh.

Shakib Al Hasan and Co. will go into the game with a dose of confidence following a close win over Zimbabwe. Of course, the Bangladesh skipper made a shocking statement ahead of the game, terming India favorites and claiming that a win for Bangladesh would be an upset. Mind games at work?
