Rishad Hossain attempts to play it over short third man, but he finds Hardik Pandya perfectly. It wasn't a slower one either, so the dismissal is all the more heart-wrenching. With third man in the circle, Rishad would have liked to have lifted it over but did not move his feet at all, trusting just his hands. An easy catch for Hardik. 45.2 | 1 Run – Length delivery, Towhid Hridoy plays it to cover and limps through for a single.

The match is scheduled to be played at the Dubai International Stadium, Dubai on 20 February 2025 at 02:30 PM IST. Both these teams will face each other at this venue in this format after nearly seven years, having last played in 2018 in the Asia Cup Final where India defeated Bangladesh in the last ball thriller. 19:40 (IST): 19 Feb 2025: IND vs BAN, Match 2 What to Expect The surface at the Dubai International Stadium offers good assistance to the bowlers. Batters will need to settle their eyes before unleashing their shots. The average first-innings score at this venue in ODIs is 219, indicating a potential low-scoring thriller. However, if the batters of the team batting first spend some time in the middle, they could post a total between 240-270, which would be challenging. 19:38 (IST): 19 Feb 2025: IND vs BAN, Match 2 Team Updates India: After Jasprit Bumrah was ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, team India made a couple of changes to their squad.

Probable XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakravarthy/Kuldeep Yadav Bangladesh: Shanto and his men are coming into this match with a mix of experienced and young players. However, they will be missing the services of their premier all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan who is currently away from the game after being handed with the ban for the illegal bowling action. Probable XI: Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Soumya Sarkar, Tanzid Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali Anik, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Nahid Rana. 19:37 (IST): 19 Feb 2025: IND vs BAN, Match 2 Key Stats to Know Virat Kohli is the highest run-scorer in the India vs Bangladesh ODIs (910).
