Now all eyes are on the second T20 match, by winning which India will take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. First of all, let us know what will be the nature of the pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium and with what playing style can both the teams enter the field?
pitch report
History has witnessed that the pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium has mostly been suitable for batting. Since the boundaries of the field are small, it is easy to hit fours and sixes. In IPL 2024, 200 or more runs have been scored in 8 innings of the last 5 matches played at this ground. On the other hand, as the match progresses, the spin bowlers start getting help from the pitch. Talking about international matches, the average score of the first innings on this ground is 139 runs. The team batting first has been able to register victory only on 4 occasions in 13 matches.
India’s probable playing eleven: In the first match of the series, the Indian team performed brilliantly in batting, bowling and fielding. Mayank Yadav and Nitish Kumar also performed well in their debut match. Looking at the performance of the first match, there seems to be little hope that Team India will make any changes in its playing eleven for the second match.
Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, Nitish Reddy, Hardik Pandya, Ryan Parag, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Varun Chakraborty, Arshdeep Singh, Mayank Yadav.
Probable playing eleven of Bangladesh: After losing by a huge margin in the first match, the visiting team will probably enter the field making changes in its playing eleven. Taskin Ahmed’s bowling was badly beaten in the first match, so this time Bangladesh can give a chance to Tanzim Hasan Shakib, who is in good form at the moment.
Liton Das, Parvez Hussain, Nazmul Shanto, Tahid Hriday, Mahmudullah, Zekar Ali, Mehdi Hasan Miraj, Rishad Hussain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam.
