While a victory for Bangladesh will keep them alive in the tournament, a loss will put an halt to their campaign. On the other hand, a victory will confirm India’s position in the Top Four. Even if they lose, it won’t be the end of the road for them.

BAN vs IND Dream 11 Prediction
Wicket-keepers for BAN vs IND Dream 11
I have selected a couple of wicket-keeper batsmen for this match. In what might come as fresh changes for you all, I haven’t included the main wicket-keeper batsmen in my team. The reason behind the same is a budget constraint for I wanted to included some key specialist players.
Bangladesh’s Liton Das is my first wicket-keeper batsman. With him returning back to the top of the innings in the last match, Das will have more time to construct his innings against India. In his last ODI against India, Das had registered his maiden ODI century.
My second wicket-keeper batsman is India’s Rishabh Pant. Having looked good for his 32 (29) against England on Sunday, Pant will surely take field today. All-rounder Vijay Shankar getting ruled out of the tournament means that the southpaw will get an extended run.
Batsmen for BAN vs IND Dream 11
India captain Virat Kohli and vice-captain Rohit Sharma automatically walk into my Dream11 fantasy team for this match. Given their form, it would be naive of me to not include them for this match.
You might argue that the pair has done well and might not score well in every match but the risk of leaving these batsmen out and then watching them pile on the runs is too much for me. Therefore, get both of them in even if they affect your pocket.

In 11 ODIs against Bangladesh, Kohli has scored 654 runs at an average of 81.75 and a strike rate of 99.39 including three centuries and half-centuries each. On the other hand, Sharma has scored 556 runs in 12 ODIs at an average of 55.60 and a strike rate of 90.40 including two centuries and half-centuries each. Sharma has scored two centuries in as many matches against Bangladesh in ICC tournaments.
The ramification of having both these players in my team is that I have to settle for Soumya Sarkar instead of Tamim Iqbal from Bangladesh.
All-rounders for BAN vs IND Dream 11
Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is arguably the player of the tournament at this point in time. Having scored 476 runs and dismissed 10 batsmen so far, there’s a reason why Shakib (11 credits) is priced above the likes of Kohli (10.5) and Sharma (10). Therefore, don’t go by the price tag and just buy him.
My second all-rounder for this match is India’s Hardik Pandya. Having looked good in the tourney so far, expect Pandya to yield significant points for you.
Bowlers for BAN vs IND Dream 11
In what is a rare case, I have bought as many as four bowlers for this match. Bangladesh fast bowler Mohammad Saifuddin and off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz are part of my team today.
Having dismissed 10 batsmen in five matches at an average of 28.10, an economy rate of 6.69 and a strike rate of 25.2, Saifuddin is Bangladesh’s highest wicket-taker so far. With both him and Miraz costing me just 16.5 credits, they have it in them to become the most budget buys for this match.
Much like Kohli and Sharma, India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is another automatic selection for me. Talking about Mohammed Shami, today is the first time when I have picked him in my team. With 13 wickets in three matches at an average of 9.61, an economy rate of 4.77 and a strike rate of 12, Shami has been India’s best bowler despite playing only three matches.
BAN vs IND Fantain Prediction
Today is also the first time when I have made so many changes in my Dream11 and Faintain teams. The primary reason for the same was that neither out of Pant or Das are registered as wicket-keeper batsmen in Fantain prediction. Mushfiqur Rahim’s mammoth cost made me forcefully make some changes to my team.
While Rahim replaced Sarkar in the squad, misery struck Bangladesh’s squad when I picked India leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal over Miraz. Among the last change, I have selected Lokesh Rahul over Rohit Sharma majorly because of a budget constraint.
The latest team has also seen seven players from India as compared to six Dream11.
