IND vs BAN 3rd T20I Weather Today: India will be aiming to whitewash Bangladesh in the third T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Saturday. While Suryakumar Yadav’s side has looked flawless in the tournament Najmul Hossain Shanto’s Bangladesh have been no match to the hosts. With the series already in the bag India might look to give a chance to a few bench players likewise with the series already lost Bangladesh might be looking to do the same.
Predicted XI:
India XI: Sanju Samson(w), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Nitish Reddy, Hardik Pandya/Jitesh Sharma, Riyan Parag, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana
Player to watch out for: All eyes will be on Sanju Samson. The batter given the opportunity at the top order has failed twice in the series. Though he has looked good for a brief while he was a victim of a couple of soft dismissals. On Saturday the batter will look to play an innings of substance to keep his spot in the side going forward.
Bangladesh XI: Parvez Hossain Emon, Litton Das(w), Najmul Hossain Shanto(c), Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali/Mahedi Hasan, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Mustafizur Rahman
Player to watch out for: Najmul Hossain Shanto apart from the second innings in Chennai in the first Test has had a series to forget as a captain and with the bat. Once again like Samson he too has shown glimpses of what he can do however, the starts have not been converted into big scores in white-ball leg of the series. The southpaw would be looking to end the tour on high.
Squads:
Bangladesh Squad: Parvez Hossain Emon, Litton Das(w), Najmul Hossain Shanto(c), Towhid Hridoy, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Mahedi Hasan, Shoriful Islam, Tanzid Hasan, Rakibul Hasan
India Squad: Sanju Samson(w), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Nitish Reddy, Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Washington Sundar, Varun Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, Ravi Bishnoi, Tilak Varma, Jitesh Sharma
Pitch report: Though Hyderabad pitch traditionally has supported all departments the recent Indian Preimer League season has showed that the balance is slightly tilted towards batting and for the game on Saturday once again it might be a run fest.
Weather report: According to Accuweather.com, “a thunderstorm in spots in the morning, then intervals of clouds and sunshine in the afternoon” is predicted on Saturday. There is a 40 per cent chance of rain in the morning. However, the forecast suggests negligible rain in the evening.
livestreaming details: Sports18 has the telecasting rights for the entire India-Bangladesh series. On the other hand, live streaming of the match will be available on JioCinema.
