1st ODI: Bangladesh win toss, choose to bowl first against India

Bangladesh won the toss and chose to bowl first against India in their first match of three-match ODI series at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

Bangladesh won their only ODI series against the mighty neighbour in 2015 by securing the three-match series 2-1 at home.

Liton Das, who was appointed as captain in absence of injured Tamim Iqbal, feels that there is no reason that they couldn't replicate the performance of 2015, especially when they are playing at home.

"The home condition is a big advantage for us. When we play at home, our goal is always to win the series, so there is no exception in this series also," Liton said on Saturday during the pre-match conference.

The two teams played 36 matches, so far, between them India winning 30 and Bangladesh won just five matches while one match fetched no result.
