ICC World T20 2016: India vs Bangladesh - 5 key battles
India vs Bangladesh match in this T20 World Cup holds great importance to the Indian setup.A win here will keep their chances high for qualifying in the semifinals while an upset by Bangladesh can throw them out of the tournament.It wouldn’t be wrong to say that Bangladesh is the most improved limited overs side in the last few years.Earlier Bangladeshi fans were content with a win in a blue moon while now Bangladesh qualifying in the Asia Cup finals wasn’t a big surprize for many.Though India is in good form but a loss against New Zealand has ensured that every match they play in the tournament thereon remains a knockout.So in such a pressure game let’s see what will be the 5 key battles that can decide the course of the game:-
#1 Rohit Sharma vs Al Amin Hossain
When all the limelight has been focussed on Mustafizur, one player that has stood out in the Bangladeshi bowling camp is Al Amin Hossain.He has consistently provided brilliant starts to his team and the early breakthroughs he provides play a big part in Bangladesh grabbing the momentum from start.
India relies heavily on its top order in the T20 format and one of the main pillars of this top order is Rohit Sharma.When he finds form in a T20 match, he can make a mockery of the opposition bowling.
If Rohit provides India a good start then they will be unstoppable in the match and Bangladesh will rely heavily on Al Amin to provide them the early breakthrough of Rohit Sharma’s wicket and halt India’s progress in the game.Al Amin vs Rohit will be a key battle in the match and might play a big part in deciding the course of the game.
