T20 World Cup Women: India vs Bangladesh Match Preview Odds & Predictions
India will lock horns with Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup on Thursday. India have won their last seven head-to-head games against Bangladesh. Can India continue their dominance here?
India Preview
India suffered a defeat in their last match, losing to South Africa by 6 wickets and ending their two-game winning streak. India will now have to remain focused in their remaining games to have a chance to make it to the next round. Nevertheless, they have recorded three wins in their five World Cup games, beating Pakistan and the Netherlands. They currently sit in second place in Group 1 with four points from three games.
India XI
Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Yastika Bhatia, Harmanpreet Kaur(c), Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh(wk), Deepti Sharma, Shreyanka Patil, Kranti Gaud, Shree Charni, Nandni Sharma.
Bangladesh Preview
Bangladesh returned to winning ways, defeating Pakistan by 23 runs. In the outing, they lost early wickets, but fortunately, Fatima Sana took two early wickets. Shorna Akter came through for Bangladesh, taking 43 runs in the last four overs, and her late-game hits helped the team to win. They have not been consistent in this World Cup, having won only twice in their last three games. The wins were against the Netherlands and Pakistan. At the moment, they sit 3rd with four points in the Group 1 standings in three games.
Bangladesh XI
Dilara Akter, Juairiya Ferdous, Sharmin Akhter, Nigar Sultana (C), Sobhana Mostary, Shorna Akter, Ritu Moni, Nahida Akter, Rabeya Khan, Marufa Akter, Sultana Khatun.
India vs Bangladesh Prediction
India have shown Bangladesh their dominance in the head-to-head series. They have won the last seven games against them, and I believe this dominance will come to play in this clash. Nevertheless, both sides are desperate in need of this game, and no doubt it will tell on the number of points. So with this, instead of backing India to win, I will stick with over 180.5 points due to the high value attached to it. My prediction is over 180.5 points, with 1xBet offering odds of 1.99.
