India vs Bangladesh preview, team news, when and where to watch free ICC World Cup 2023 live stream

Team India has been decimating opponents in ODI World Cup 2023 and after 3 wins in as many outings, Rohit Sharma's men now have their eyes set on Bangladesh in Pune.

India has been firing on all cylinders and the return of Shubman Gill means that the hosts are back to full strength.

With Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul all in top form with the bat and bowlers breathing fire, Team India will go into this clash as overwhelming favourites.

However, the Bangla Tigers cannot be taken lightly. Interestingly, Bangladesh has beaten India in 3 of the last 4 ODIs between these two teams. That includes India's only loss at the Asia Cup last month.

Moreover, the Men in Blue have an even stevens record at the MCA stadium, having won 2 and lost of their last 4 one day games at this venue.

With Shakib Al Hasan training in full flow after an injury scare, the visitors would fancy their chances.

But it's easier said than done. Bangladesh has lost both of its last two matches and a red hot Team India knows that a win here would help them take a huge stride towards the semifinals.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

The two sides have faced each other in 40 ODIs with Bangladesh managing to win only 8 of those matches. India on the other hand has won 31, with 1 ODI ending in no result.
