Bangladesh win toss, choose to field first

Bangladesh have won the toss and opted to bowl against India on Wednesday.

Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah says: “The wicket looks quite dry, spinners may come into play. The wickets here get better and better. We have two specialist spinners. One change, Abu Hider comes in for Taskin.”

“I was thinking about batting, if we qualify for the final, we want to do that. Very happy with the way the team is performing. No, not at all (concerns of form). One change, Mohammad Siraj in place of Jaydev Unadkat,” says Rohit Sharma.

India and Bangladesh have faced each other six times in Twenty20 Internationals. India have won each and every time.
