This Super 10 matchup will happen under a sweltering sun, perfect to match the equally hot play by India. They are 2-0 in their first two matches, while the hosts have dropped their only game thus far. Bangladesh might be in trouble if one is judging from their matchup with the West Indies, in which they were soundly beaten by 73 runs.
Mushfiqur Rahim said the Bangladeshi side is unable to play loose these days with the team members worried about keeping their spots. That's not an issue for the Indians, who have knocked off Pakistan and the West Indies by seven wickets apiece.
India is playing a complete game recently; their bowlers held both opponents to 130 or fewer while star batsmen Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were each able to top half a hundred. They will be counted on to keep the good times rolling, as will Amit Mishra, whose all-around game has been top notch.
On the flip side, Bangladesh's Anamul Haque has been quite impressive at the top of the order despite very little experience in international cricket. The fresh-faced 21-year-old will need to start quickly against India's quality bowlers if the Bangladeshi are to have a prayer.
